Iran Month
Today we conclude our special focus on persecuted Christians in Iran and for the spread of the Gospel among the Iranian people at home and abroad. Two books are available from Elam ministries to help us pray meaningfully for them: Iran and Beyond (a general introduction to what God is doing there), Iran 30 (a 30 day prayer diary). Please pick up a copy for yourself from the foyer.

Family Service
Next Sunday, will be a family service, when several Sunday School children will be involved in parts of the service. Worksheets will be available for the children as well. Creche will still operate as usual.
Manse Heating
Due to a generous donation the manse heating problem has been solved with small reverse cycle AC units for the three bedrooms in the lower part of the house. The Board of Management is very grateful for the gift and the Elliotts even more so! It is an important upgrade for the manse. Thank you as well to a few other people who were also willing to make contributions.
