This Friday, we are going to be preparing the goody bags for the ‘Job & Jingle’ Christmas show coming up on 26th November. If you are able to come along to the Salvation Army on Friday 16th November between 1 and 3 p.m., we will be getting the goody bags ready and also rounding up all the knitted sheep ready for the ‘Churches Together’ Advent Sheep Trail. If you have knitted a sheep for us, please ensure it’s at the Salvation Army by Friday!

On Monday 26th November, 4FrontTheatre will be performing their ‘Job & Jingle’ Christmas pantivity in Goldthorpe. Please pray for this group and for Goldthorpe Primary School and Sacred Heart Primary School pupils who will be watching the show and for all who will come to the evening performance at 6:30 p.m.

On Saturday 1st December, we will be holding a baptismal service at 6 p.m., when James is getting baptised. It’s always a great joy to celebrate the new life that Jesus brings and is an opportunity to witness to friends and family of the change that God makes in our lives. Please pray for this service and come along if you can!

At the end of November, the knitted sheep will be taken out to local shops in Goldthorpe, Bolton-on-Dearne and Thurnscoe. Leaflets will be available to all primary school children and from the shops. The idea is to find the name of 10 sheep in your village and bring the leaflet with your answers to the ‘Churches Together’ Sheep Christmas Celebration on Saturday 15th December between 2 and 4 p.m. at the Salvation Army. There will be the chance to win a beautiful Christmas hamper and some of the knitted sheep. At the service, we’ll be having carols, crafts, bun decorating, stories and a puppet show, all looking at Christmas through the eyes of the sheep…
