Dear All,
Next Thursday our Chaplain, the Reverend John Bavington, will be celebrating Holy Communion at 11am and the service will be followed by our local annual meeting.
This is an important time when we look over the past year and also look to the future of our community. Please plan to attend if you possibly can.

Looking forward to seeing you all next week,

NOTICES Some invitations before we start our worship:

1. Please join us on zoom, for a half hour of prayer for the ministry of the Chaplaincy in 2026 on Tuesdays at 6.30pm.
2. Also on Tuesday’s, from 3rd February, our Chaplain, John Bavington will be hosting an online Bible study from 7.30-8.30pm, which will start by looking at Ephesians.
The zoom links can be found on our weekly update. If you don’t receive that and would like to, please email our administrator at [email protected]
3. In Advent, John invited everyone to partake in a ‘Weekly day of Prayer and Fasting’. He invites us again to do so again in Lent – starting with Ash Wednesday and then continuing each Wednesday until Easter. People will find a practice that works for them. A suggested practice is to eat an evening meal and then miss breakfast and lunch and then eat again the next evening, using the time usually taken for preparing and eating meals in prayer.
4. "The Bible in a Day" will be held at the Protestant temple in Talence on 14th March 2026 from 9.30-4.00pm. This is a completely free event (with a retiring collection in aid of the Chaplaincy of Aquitaine). It is a 'Bring your own lunch', but other refreshments will be provided. John will be teaching the big story of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, using visuals and storytelling with practical application to our Christian life. Along the way we will explore some important themes and ideas which run all through the Scriptures, such as 'Kingship' and 'Covenant'. Please put this in your diary today! All welcome.

Today as it's Christmas Eve here is my favourite christmas carol by the one and only Frank Sinatra, an unusual coupling I agree. Chosen because I like singing along not being shown up by choristers.
So have at it Frank and Merry Christmas Eve everyone.

It Came Upon A Midnight Clear by Frank Sinatra. Listen to more Christmas music from Frank Sinatra! https://sinatra.lnk.to/JollyChristmasID https://sinatra.ln...

Something wonderful is about to happen. The Saviour of the world is about to be born. But the grumpy owl who lives in the barn just wants to be left alone......
