WHOLE CHURCH MEETING - OPPORTUNITIES TO GIVE

Sunday 24th April will be our next whole church gathering at the Winding Wheel 10.30 am. So, no meetings at Alfreton or Stretton this week. Gail will be leading us in worship and Martyn will be our speaker.

Ukraine has been on our hearts and we have been consistently praying into that situation. This Sunday we would like to give everyone the opportunity to to give financially so that those on the ground helping the refugees can provide some of the things they need. Please pray and ask God what you should give and come prepared to bless the people of Ukraine when we take up an offering.

Tithes and Offerings are important to us as a church so please see the Ukraine offering as over and above your normal giving. If you pay UK taxes and don’t already Gift Aid please ask Jacky for a form to give your permission. For every £1 you give us we can claim back an extra 25p. Over the 50 meetings this year we can claim back £12.50 on every pound you give. It makes a huge difference.

Tools With a Mission (TWAM) are an amazing charity restoring and repurposing old tools, sewing machines, computers etc to enable people in Zambia to learn a skill and set up their own businesses. You will have seen some of the amazing stories on our Facebook page. From this Sunday we will have collection boxes for stamps and old or foreign coins which will be used to raise funds for this charity. Please leave at least half an inch (1 cm) of paper around the stamp when your tear it from the envelope.

Thank you
