Thursday mornings at BJCC

Thursday Mornings at BJCC

This autumn we may do something new. 

What do you think? 
Is it worth a shot?

Thursdays
9.30 am - 12 noon

Prayer & Share …………....  (in the hall)
An opportunity to meet and share, pray & talk, tea & coffee on tap

Sanctuary ………….........  (in the church)
Somewhere to be still or for private prayer (There may be music)

On the first and third Thursday, this would incorporate the regular Prayer + Coffee from 9.30 to 10.30 ish. Generally, what I see as the usual format is to have some sort of group prayer at 9.30 and then an opportunity to read scripture together at about 10.30, using the lectionary readings for the following Sunday. 

Otherwise, in the hall, there would be tea and coffee and a chance to chat and the church would also be open as a place to get away from it all and be still.

I'd like to give it a go. We'll see what happens.

Bible discussion group

Bible discussion group

We enjoyed a lively discussion at this morning's Bible discussion group led by Sheila around a verse in Hebrews chapter 4.

For the word of God is alive and active, sharper than any two-edged sword. It penetrates to the division of soul and spirit, to the joints and marrow, judging the thoughts and attitudes of our hearts.  Hebrews chapter 4 verse 12

The Bible discussion group meets alternate Tuesday mornings at 10 o'clock at the church or in someone's home. See the weekly notices for details. Next time we will be looking at a verse in Paul's letter to the Philippians (chapter 2 verse 16). Come along! We start with tea and coffee and then share our thoughts on the passage beginning and ending with prayer.

Hold firm to the word of life and then I will be able to boast that I did not run the race or labour in vain. Philippians 2, 16
