Elizabeth's new BOOK

 

New Book –

Who was Nunc Dimittis Anyway by Elizabeth Bailey £5.00

Elizabeth has written a book on questions we might have about all the odd, weird and wonderful things that happen in in and around the church. As well as being a good read, all proceeds go to the church.

Elizabeth has attended Christ Church for many years and realised that we all have many questions about what happens in Church Services and what is meant at times.  Her book was published for the first time in November '24 and sold out within a week!  It is now in its second print and copies are available at Church.  It is very readable and a good source of explanation of many questions that may have occurred to you!

Christmas Fayre - THANK YOU

A big thank you to everyone who helped in any way for the Christmas Fayre. With a couple of extra donations recently our total now stands at £1,465.     A fantastic result for all the hard work.

Confirmation September '24, with Bishop Jill

 

Congratulations to Peter, Jackson and Grace from Christ Church following their confirmation at St Michael’s Church, Grimsargh. Please continue to pray for them.

The service featured candidates from both churches. The picture is of all the candidates, with Bishop Jill.

Messy Church

                 (4th Sunday each Monthat 10am
Messy Church has changed its timing. We are having Messy Church on a monthly basis in the mornings in place of Junior Church. Messy Church will start at 10.00am in the hall and be for anyone who wants a craft based worship, but particularly applicable for families to do together. It will finish at 11.30am when refreshments will be served.

 

In the church building there will be worship as normal. Most (Messy Church) Sundays it will be a shorted Service of the Word but planned with adults in mind. This service will also finish about 11.30am with the aim of joining the families in the hall for refreshments.
