If you are on the rota for doing the Bible readings or leading the Intercessions in church, or if you would like to explore the possibilities of doing either of these (with no commitment), you might like put a note in your diary. Martin Stanisstreet and Joyce Caithness will lead a session where we can all share ideas about various ways in which these ministries might be developed.

We will join with our partners in the other local Anglican Churches for an Ash Wednesday Service at Cotham Parish Church.
