^ PRAYER FOCUS:
Maureen

work as Medical Officer-in-Charge at the
^ CRECHE
Please note the
following new arrangements for Creche:
During July and
August the crèche will be held in the choir room with the Children’s
Church. Parents should bring young
children to church for the first part of the service, going out to the choir
room at approximately 11.20am. These
changes have been made necessary due to the work on the halls heating system
which is being untaken during July and August.
CHURCH HALLS HEATING APPEAL
The
Ekenhead Memorial Halls built in the 1930’s, apart
from replacing the boilers and burners in 2001 the pipe-work relating to the
heating system goes back to when the halls were built. At the beginning of this year a significant
water leak from the heating system was detected and this resulted in half of
the system having to be isolated and leaving most of the rooms with greatly
reduced or no heat at all. The MOP Committee
has taken the decision to carry out a total replacement of the existing
pipe-work.
Many
of us have inherited this building from previous generations and from older
members of the congregation who paid for its erection. It’s now our turn to carry the burden. This is a challenge which is not beyond our
capabilities. Together we can do it, so
let us accomplish it with thankfulness and joy. Leaflets and envelopes have been
delivered to each family in the congregation, please give generously. Envelopes
should be placed on the offering plate.
