Here are some dates for the diary:

Saturday 2nd July will be our ‘Take Back the Streets’ prayer meeting (where we walk around Goldthorpe and pray for our community), leaving GPCC at 10 a.m. Our coffee morning is also on Saturday 2nd July between 10 a.m. and 12 p.m., so do come along for a cuppa and a chat. We are selling raffle tickets to help Goldthorpe Railway Embankment which suffered vandalism recently; we want to help restore this beautiful outdoor space so we can continue to enjoy the area. We’ll also be decorating quilt squares for the GPCC Jubilee Quilt which will be displayed at the Dearne Community Arts’ Festival on Saturday 24th September. Here’s one done by Hannah Cooper already.

On Wednesday 20th July at 1.30 p.m. we’ll be hosting the ‘Churches Together’ prayer meeting at GPCC. Come along to pray for your local community and be involved in all that God is doing locally!

The Parent & Toddler group meets every Wednesday and Friday between 9 a.m. and 11 a.m. until Wednesday 20th July. We are taking over 100 people to Gulliver’s Valley in Rotherham on Friday 29th July as our summer outing, so please remember that final payments for this are due by 15th July at the latest. We’ll be leaving GPCC at 9.30 a.m. that morning.
