St Mary Redcliffe Church Parish Magazine - October 2016

est opportunity the church has to engage other people with the
adventure!
Your church needs your help.
Please put the following into your diaries. More importantly, invite
your friends, colleagues and neighbours who would not normally share
in the adventure of the Christian faith to come to one of the services
with you.

We are also looking for people to read at one of the services. If you
would like to do this, please get in touch with the parish office by
phone (0117 231 0060) or email dan.tyndall@stmaryredcliffe.co.uk.
You will be given plenty of time to look through your reading and an
opportunity to rehearse in church with the microphone system if you
have not done this before. It would be great to have some new readers
on our list for this new initiative.
