As the summer holidays draw to a close and the new academic year begins, here’s an update on what is happening at church in September.

Midweek meetings resume on Thursday 2nd September when we will be meeting for prayer at 7.30 p.m. Every church activity must be rooted in prayer, so we would encourage as many people as possible to make this a priority and join with us to pray!

Our Parent & Toddler group resumes on Friday 3rd September between 9.30 a.m. and 11.00 a.m. We’re looking forward to welcoming families back after the summer and hope to see new families joining us! It’s a great place to meet other parents and to let your children learn vital social interaction in an informal and friendly setting. at 50 p per session, it’s a bargain!

Our monthly prayer-as-we-walk meeting (‘Take Back The Streets’) will be on Saturday 4th September, leaving church at 10 a.m. Those who can walk will walk the streets and pray; those who are not able to walk so far can stay in the building to pray!

 

On Saturday 4th September from 11 a.m., we’ll be having a cleaning and maintenance day. It’s important to keep the building and grounds looking good and we need as many people as possible to come along so we can make sure everything is ready for the new term!

The ‘Churches Together’ prayer meeting will be on Wednesday 8th September at 10.45 a.m. at Sacred Heart RC Church on Lockwood Road and on Facebook live.

The Dearne Community Arts’ Festival is on Saturday 25th September between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. at Astrea Academy Dearne in Goldthorpe. This is a great opportunity to see what talent there is in our local area as the festival aims to champion creativity and celebrate community. Exhibitions, workshops, demonstrations and performances will be happening. Why not pop in to see what’s going on in the area?
