Church Weekend 2020
We can’t go away together as a church for 48 hours as we’d planned this weekend – but there’s plenty we have planned instead – and for free!
We are thrilled Mark Bradford is still willing to be our speaker, leading us in “The Space Between”. He’s prepared five talks which can be viewed online through the email link, Facebook, or our church website, and the idea is to watch the videos on your own and then come together twice on Zoom to discuss briefly together and Mark will be there to answer questions too.
Here’s the timetable for the weekend – a variety of events but not as packed a timetable as normal, so that you don’t get online fatigue. All Zoom links will be available on our email list and Facebook.
Talks & Service❯
Talk 1 – (Intro) The Place of Exile
Talk 2 – The Time of Waiting
Talk 3 – The Wilderness
Sunday service (inc Talk 4)
