Don’t forget the Women’s World Day of Prayer this Friday (6th March.) This will start at 6 p.m. at St Peter’s Church in Barnburgh, and has been written by women from the Bahamas. Banish the winter blues by wearing colourful clothes! Don’t forget to bring tinned food to this event to support the Salvation Army food bank.
On Sunday (8th March) there will be the Christian bookstall in church, featuring cards, gifts, books and CDs from the CLC bookshop in Sheffield. Come along ready to buy!
There are also a number of activities happening locally over Easter. Our church will be showing a film based on Matthew’s Gospel on Good Friday at 7 p.m. and on Easter Saturday at 1 p.m. and 7 p.m. The Salvation Army will be showing the film ‘Jesus of Nazareth’ on Saturday 21st March and 28th March at 4 p.m. and will also host a special Maundy Thursday service at 7 p.m. on Thursday 2nd April.
The Easter ‘March of Hope’ will see all local churches joining together for a march of witness around Goldthorpe on Saturday 4th April. We’ll start on Lockwood Road at 10.30 a.m. and will march around Goldthorpe, singing songs of witness, ending back at our church for a church lunch by 12 noon. This is a great opportunity to let all of Goldthorpe know that Jesus is alive!
Don’t forget also the church trip to Bridlington on Monday 4th May. If you’re interested in going on this, please let Julie know as soon as possible as she will be booking the coach soon.
