Additional Announcements

Please note there is no Tots, Ladies’ Bible Study or CE this week due to the half term holidays.

On Monday evening we are holding a ‘Light Party’ for all children aged 4-11. It will be held from 7-8pm.

This provides our children and the children of our villages with an alternative to Halloween. Where instead of celebrating dark and scary things, they will celebrate that Jesus is the Light of the World, and that he is stronger than darkness. Please invite children that you know. There will be craft, games, sweets, songs and a short message.

Any PW members who have mission boxes, or who would like to contribute to the PW special projects this year, please give your contributions to Jackie Campbell by 1st December. Special projects this year are ‘Transforming Lives for Good’ and ‘Bible Society Malawi’. Thank you.
