Pastorate this Tuesday

This Tuesday (5 June)
Pastorate is gathering this Tuesday at 7.30 in the Crypt. Amy's smallgroup will be providing delicious desserts.

Looking ahead to the term, we have pastorate this Tuesday (5 June), the Annual Church Meeting on 12 June then smallgroups each Tuesday except 10 July when we're meeting as pastorate (not to confuse you or anything!)

Welcoming this Sunday
We are down to be welcoming this Sunday morning at Woodlands Central. Turn up before 10am to help sort out coffee etc. Speak to Simon if you need more info.

Changes in pastorate life

For those of you who weren't around last night, Sam and Amy both said that they will step back from leading pastorate at the end of this term. Looking ahead, Dave Mitchell and Matt Smith will be helping input into pastorate life with Steve and Netty Matthews also be getting more involved.

We are exploring with a number of smallgroups not currently part of a pastorate the possibility of joining us for our monthly gatherings.

With so much going on we are eager to hear your thoughts and ideas, and one way you can share them is via a questionnaire you can download here.

Sunday Social
...this Sunday - we're meeting at the back of Woodies after the service on Sunday morning. A bunch of people will be going to a chinese then the downs for frisbee etc.

Pastorate & Drinks at Halo

Pastorate this Tuesday
At pastorate this Tuesday (15 May) Dave Mitch and Matt Smith are coming to share some thoughts with us on "Commitment in Community". Should be a fantastic night - we'll meet from 7.30 in the Crypt and will be eating desserts together (no main meal).

Some guys from some other homegroups (that aren't currently linked in with a pastorate) are also coming along this week so do make a point of being extra friendly :-)

Drinks at Halo this Friday
A bunch of people are going for drinks at Halo this Friday night from 8pm. All pasties and their friends are warmly invited. Speak to Simon if you need more info. Halo is on (141) Gloucester Road.

From Sarah Jutsum:

For all those who were not at pastorate last night and haven't heard on the grapevine, we are having a picnic on the downs at 12.30 ish this saturday-bring a plate- meeting across the road from the water tower. We're going to be playing wide games after-like rounders ultimate frisbee football, etc, so if you have a ball/frisbee /bat etc then please bring. Bring as many friends as you like, the more the merrier. we'll be there till about 4, so will still be going for a while even if you cant make the picnic!
