SUNDAY 7th January 2018 Volunteers Needed! Happy New Year Coffee Lovers!   We are looking for some new brewers to help on the rota as we do have gaps with none of the usual suspects being around.  If you can get to church a bit earlier than normal and offer a friendly cuppa on a Sunday morning please can you let Lisa Baxby lisabaxby@yahoo.co.uk or Rachel Hirst racheljhirst@gmail.com know as soon as possible. PS if there is anyone free for the 14th Jan and the 11th Feb these are the dates where sadly there could be no coffee. Dangerous Faith Five practical workshops equipping you to share the gospel with confidence and creativity. Wednesdays, 14th February to 14th March 2018, 7.30-9.30pm 2 Dale Villas, Horsforth, Leeds, LS18 4JN These workshops are for ordinary Christians who aren't particularly brave. Our goal is to equip you to talk naturally about the Christian faith, in a way that gets people wanting to know more. You will be challenged to improve your communication skills through telling stories and asking questions.   The workshops are free, but booking is essential as space is limited. Email mark@realitybites.org.uk to book your place.  More information at www.thinkfaith.net/events/dangerousfaith18 We always want to care & look out for each other as a community, but please remember that except for when they are in their designated groups, all children & young people remain the responsibility of their parents/carers at all times.
