Welcome to our Services today!

All welcome

10.45am Morning Service

After the service, prayer is available for anyone who would like to be prayed with – please make your way to the front of the church where the prayer team will meet you.

Please join us for tea and coffee after the service in the hall. If you are a visitor here today, we have a welcome leaflet available. Please ask if you have not received one.

Memory Verse for the Week commencing 29/1/07

“When I am afraid, I put my trust in you. In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I shall not be afraid. What can flesh do to me?” Psalm 56:3-4

Church Meeting – Monday 29th January

There is a Church meeting tomorrow evening here at PSBC at 8pm. Everyone is welcome to come along.

Traidcraft – Can you help run it?

We would like to thank Helen who has faithfully been running Traidcraft for several years on behalf of the church. Helen is now stepping down from this role, and the youth would like to continue to sell Traidcraft on Sunday mornings. In order for this to happen we need someone willing to take over Helen’s role of ordering and sorting the stock and running the account. If you are interested, please speak to Graham or Helen, who will be able to give you more information.

Church Directory

Copies of the new church directory are available at the back of the church – please take one today – there are enough for one per household.

Joint Housegroup

The next Joint Housegroup evening will be on Wednesday 7th February. Please note the new start time is 7.30pm. Everyone is welcome to join us for the meal and time together - you do not need to be attending a housegroup to come along. If you are able to help with the serving and washing up on the evening, please speak to Louise or Alan – a team of about 6 people is required. Thank you.

Spring Harvest

There may be some spare accommodation available for Spring Harvest 07. If you are interested in going and have not yet booked, please speak to Helen today or as soon as possible. If you have not made your final payment to Helen, please speak to her today as the deadline has now passed. Thank you.

KS2 Praise Party

The Key Stage 2 Praise Party is taking place on Saturday 10th Feb between 6:30 and 8pm. Please remember to complete and return the permission slip if your child would like to come along and join in the fun!

Take a look!

The noticeboards have been updated with new displays. Take a look at what our young people are involved in around the world, and about Wycliffe. There are also posters with information about Calne Christian Bookshop Sale, and the latest Transform evening with speaker Michael Ramsden on the noticeboards in the church, as well as booking forms for a Mission and Culture Saturday Learning Event at Bristol Baptist College.

Dinner for Six

A number of folk who have already participated have said how good it is to share a meal with new friends. May we encourage you to arrange another “Dinner for Six” between now and Easter. For those who have not shared so far, there are explanation leaflets at the back of the church or talk to Geoff for more information. God blesses happy eaters!!

Men’s Curry Night – All men welcome

Dave is organising a men’s curry night out on 8th February. If you would like to go, contact Dave or Gary so they can confirm numbers with the restaurant.

Prayer Chains

If anyone would like to join either an email or telephone prayer chain, please get in touch with Geoff. Regular prayer for one another is a great blessing and support.

Barn Dance Evening – Friday 9th February, 7.30-10pm

This evening is hosted by The Corsham Area Churches. Tickets are available from Louise at the Church Office, at £3 for adults, and £1.50 for children. Please see poster for more details.
