1. SUNDAY 19th February 2017 Fruitfulness on the Frontline
Lent is on the horizon, and starts on March 1st. Throughout Lent we will be following a course called 'Fruitfulness on the Frontline' on Sundays. It's about how we can serve God in our 'regular' lives. The course includes a DVD and small group material and housegroups will be invited to follow it. If you're not in a housegroup but would like to join a temporary group to study the course please get in touch with Simon by the 19th February.
