Co-ordinating Care for All Saints Dedworth and St Andrew's Clewer
Wanted - Drivers, Home Visitors, Hospital visitors, Prayers
Not everyone is called to such ministries. Some people are doing it naturally and yet many people are overlooked and do not receive the care we should be giving them. Volunteering is a start. Discerning gifts is a process. Understanding more about the ministries of care is vital. That is why under the leadership of our churchwarden for Pastoral Care and Assistant Church Warden (Ray Gray and Linda Griffin) we are going to start looking at the varying ministries involved in caring for the church family and the wider community.
On Monday evenings come and join us under the fig tree.
A time set aside from 4.00 - 9.00pm for all ages for spiritual refreshment.
Come and go as you please.
Families will be especially welcome from 4 - 5.30pm when music, crafts and drama will be available.
Come and seek together
Sports Ministry . All those interested in joining a church football team (ages between 9 years and 17 years) please speak to Louise.
