DDT
The next Deeper Discipleship Training Course will be Reformation Distinctives , June 18 & 25, 3:30 pm. It is 500 years since the start of the Reformation and the rediscovery of essential nature of the Gospel of Grace. This course will take us back to the foundation principles that started the Protestant church. As these Distinctives are at the core of what we believe, everyone will find this workshop a blessing. It will be especially valuable to all who have teaching ministries at EPC from Sunday School to Growth Groups.
Christianity Explored
Starts Thursdays, 8:00pm August 3rd through to September 14th in the hall. Invitations are now available. Please speak to Andy Buchan if you would like further details, or check out the videos on thinklifethinkjesus.org
Samaritans Purse Operation Christmas Child Appeal
We will be collecting Christmas Boxes again this year, with the collection date in EARLY AUGUST. The coming school holidays is an ideal time to get the family involved in filling the shoe boxes. Maxine Fowler and Judy Flett will be organising this appeal for us; flyers and boxes are available for you to pick today. It is hoped that many of our congregation will fill a box or two for the less fortunate children overseas who receive these boxes at Christmas time, as they have in previous years. If you have any queries, please speak to Maxine or Judy. A Gospel tract called “The Greatest Journey” is included in every box
