 ‘TALKING FOR GOD’ COURSE.  All are welcome to any or all of the 2 remaining sessions being held on Saturday mornings from 10.00am till Noon at All Saints.  If you feel challenged about sharing the faith with others, the course is designed to help us meet some of these challenges.  Do come along on 28th January and 4th February.

 

URGENT VACANCY from the beginning of March for a volunteer Editor for the Church in Abingdon Quarterly Magazine CHRISTIAN FOCUS.  The job involves receiving articles sent in, and producing an issue ready to be printed professionally.  An Editorial panel meets after each issue to suggest and contact contributors for the following issue.  Some computer skills are essential, and some editorial experience would be an advantage.  Please contact Margaret Langsford for further details on 01235 521536 or m.langsford@tesco.net 

Please consider prayerfully whether this post might be for you, or have you a friend who would like a challenge?

 

FAIR DATES.  Whilst your diaries are still pristine, I thought I would let you know the dates of the two Trinity Fairs booked for 2012.  Due to the Queen's celebrations, the moving of the bank holiday/half term and hopefully so that the cubs and scouts can join us, the "summer" fair will take place on Saturday 26th May from 10.00am to 1.00pm.  The "Christmas" Fair will take place on Saturday 10th November from 10.00am to 1.00pm. 

 

WORLD MISSION CONFERENCE 2012.  This will take place at Swanwick, Derbyshire from 25th to 27th May.  The topic will be "Scaling the Hurdles in Africa" - Hope and Challenge to the Church in 21st Century.  Further details and a booking form are on the Faith in Action notice-board.  I shall be going.
