Are you interested in protecting the environment? You need no specific knowledge about environmental issues but all over 10 years old are welcome to join us - Zoom meetings at first . This group will initially focus on applying for eco church status and will probably then be investigating ways that both the church and individual members can lower their carbon footprint, and then decide upon the best way forward.

We give thanks for time with family or away from home and daily routines and thank those who have provided support during the last 15 months especially.

A time for reflection to count our blessings - God loves us so much that He sent His son to die for us to come back to Him.

As we continue with restrictions on our lives, we reflect that it is not always easy to keep trusting through times of suffering. However, Jesus promised he would never leave us and we can hold out that hope for one another.

Our Advocate Slot this month is for the Trichy linked diocese in Tamil Nadu , India. Full details of prayer pointers and reasons for thanks are in Adele's letter of 20th June. The link to financially support Bishop Martyn's Appeal is above and all support very much appreciated.

Recognising God's sovereignty and giving thanks for a love that won't let us go and simply asks us to receive his help and restoration.

Let us have rest, be uplifted, serve one another and shine with the light of Christ in all we do.

An inspiring way to start each day is with the prayer that .... everything we do we do as if to Jesus.

You are invited to attend a meeting to hear more about ‘Shaped by God Together’ and to explore three possible models for ministry in the future that the diocese is considering. This is an important opportunity to give feedback and contribute ideas to the process. Please follow this link to the SBGT Local Conversation Invitation which gives further background information and preparatory reading which it would be helpful if you could read ahead of the meeting.
