Thank you to everyone at the The Open Doors Café today…a full house but you were able to accommodate us 😋

Another great meal, fantastic service, lovely people and a real sense of community.

I only got a photo of the pudding as the mains went down too well (Apple Crumble with Clotted Cream)

Thank you again for all you do.

Prayer for our new ministers 🙏

Lord, give the new ministers in our District courage for the journey, wisdom for the decisions ahead, and grace as they settle into new places and new communities. May they know your presence with them, and may they find welcome, friendship and encouragement within the churches they serve.

We pray too for the churches and Circuits receiving new ministers - that together they may discover new ways to share God's love and join in his mission.

Thank you for those whose time serving in the Northampton District has now come to an end, we pray your blessing over them as they move on to pastures new.

Amen ❤️

Built in 1863, it later merged with the Wesleyan Methodist Church, after which it became known as 'Wesley Hall'.
