Bereavement Service

26/11/2017

0 Comments

 
We grieve with hope, because we believe that Jesus died and rose again.

​Cathy Hasler
St Peter & St Paul’s hosted the Team’s annual Bereavement and Memorial service in association with the parish of St John the Evangelist - Grays North.  With around 150 in attendance this special service gave everyone a chance to reflect upon, and give thanks for, the lives of those who passed away in the parishes over the last 12 months.  Revd Canon Darren Barlow presided over the service, Cheryl Ramballi read for us and Cathy Hasler preached, touching upon her own situation as well as reflecting on that of others. Revd Christine Williams and Revd Tony Burford led the act of remembrance and Revd Clive Russell (vicar at St John the Evangelist) led everyone in prayer.

I am looking forward very much to getting to know many of you, joining the team at Grays Thurrock, working with the churches and especially ministering at All Saints. I originate from Leytonstone/Stratford where I grew up in a non-Christian home that had little connection with church, but it was in Essex where I found faith and later began to minister as a Reader in the church. Now ordained 18 years I have worked in this diocese and St Albans, and for the last ten years as Mission and Evangelism Adviser for Chelmsford diocese. My passion is for churches and Christians to reach out to their communities with the love of God in Christ and see lives transformed, every person is special to God and all of us can make this known in our communities as we pray for ‘doors’ to open.

Married to Ann who is a vicar in Harlow, we have three daughters, two grandsons and one granddaughter, so our house is sometimes transformed into what seems like a Wild ‘n’ Wacky venue. I love socialising, good coffee and good beer, so look forward to buying some of you a drink at the Beacon Centre soon.

God bless you and have a fantastic Advent and Christmas as we celebrate and proclaim the Good News of God with us.

CHRISTIAN STEWARDSHIP
‘Give all thou canst; high heaven rejects the lore / Of nicely calculated less or more.’ (William Wordsworth)
Reminder: Regular giving is needed for any church, charity etc. When this dips it has a knock-on effect. Our giving was down in August and September on the previous year. A key part of the problem seems to be that those who were giving by planned giving envelopes are not regularly giving electronic payments. If those who are now making electronic payments were to give regularly (monthly) by standing order this would be one step to solving the problem.
 
WHAT’S ON THIS WEEK
THURSDAY 16th November 2017
10am Morning Prayer followed by open church
until 12 noon.  Drop in to join with us for Morning Prayer or at any time during the morning for cuppa/chat/prayer.

Toddler Group. In the hall during term time from 9.30am – 11.00. Parents and cars welcome with pre-school children. £1.50 per family/adult.
TODDLERS FINISHES ON 15TH DECEMBER WITH OUR CHRISTMAS PARTY. 
 
DATES FOR YOUR DIARY
Christmas Fayre 2nd December.
Soft toys required in good condition for tombola stall for St. Clements Christmas Fayre. Please pass on to Sue Witham
