Unique opportunities

We held three separate summer camps. One of the favourite times was the evenings spent toasting marshmallows and sharing testimonies by the campfire. This also provides the leaders with unique opportunities for conversations and questions. One evening four young boys sat by the fire and prayed for each other and for each of the leaders. […]

One of the benefits

Different ways

Submited By: Sheldon, Colin & Rosemary

In the Assembly we opened the doors on some Saturday mornings in May and June for coffee, but no one took up the offer. For those of us who did go along, we had a lovely time of fellowship together. Prayer is valued as we look at different ways of reaching out to the local […]

Food bank

Submited By: Burnett, Colin & Natalie

The work of the food bank is going strong. Many comment on their appreciation of what is done for them. Not just the food, but that they are made to feel welcomed and treated with respect. The food is just one part of the work, building bridges with people for the Gospel is the rest. […]
