Now that December has arrived, every week looks to be a busy week! To keep you up-to-date, here’s a summary of what’s happening this week at GPCC:

  1. Tomorrow’s services (6th December) are at 10.30 a.m. and 6 p.m. The family service is looking at the theme of ‘Christ in Christmas’, looking at how Christ is central not only to Christmas but to the whole Bible! Come and find out how Christ’s coming was prophesied in the Old Testament and how God’s plan of salvation has been worked out from the foundation of the world.
  2. Midweek meetings will be as usual, with youth club on Monday (6.30-8 p.m.) and the Bible study on Thursday at 7.30 p.m. Don’t forget that other groups use the building during the week, so if you’re over 60 and interested in fitness, come along to the Keep Fit class on Tuesday at 10 a.m. Slimming World also meets on Thursdays at 9 a.m., 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. Badminton will be on Friday at 7 p.m. and the coffee morning will be on Saturday from 10 a.m. until 12 noon.
  3. The Parent & Toddler Christmas Party will be on Friday 11th December at 9.30 a.m. We’re looking forward to a great time with games, food and presents!
  4. The Christmas market is on this Friday (11th December) from 4-8 p.m. and we will be serving refreshments and doing craft activities in the community hall. Come and get Christmas decorations and enjoy home baking and don’t forget you can get presents wrapped for just 10p per parcel! All monies raised will go to the Salvation Army Christmas Appeal to help local families in need.

  6. The ‘Churches Together’ Carol Service will be on Friday 11th December at 6 p.m. This will be an outdoor carol service, so come wrapped up and ready to sing of Christ’s birth!

Please pray for all these services and for hearts to be touched by the message of Christmas. God has come to earth and we have a new song of praise and joy to sing!
