I would love to hear from you. All of us are called to be faithful in prayer. Jesus in Mathew 9 says ABBREVIATIONS AGM Annual General Meeting CA Chapel Anniversary EO Easter Offering Service to His disciples " The harvest is plentiful but the labourers are few, therefore pray HC Holy Communion US United Service WBH Women’s Bright Hour earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out labourers into His harvest." We are a people who are called to be committed in our prayer life, to pray regularly with Fellowship: The Church Stewards are responsible with the Church Family for leading the service. whole hearted devotion. Be encouraged God is able to do far more than we can SUBSTITUTE AND VISITING PREACHERS ask or think. Preachers unable to fulfill their appointments must provide an accredited substitute and inform the Superintendent Minister. Churches inviting preachers for special services should consult with the Superintendent or their own minister. If a minister is invited from another circuit an exchange of ministers maybe required and the inviting church is God Bless responsible for travelling expenses for both ministers. Will Church Stewards please submit the address of visiting preachers. A church inviting a Supernumerary Minister is responsible for the appropriate preaching fee. Stephen
