From Mark

This Sunday (21st June) we are delighted to welcome Mr. Ole Black from Newport to lead our service. Ole is a good friend to the church and is delighted to visit us on this occasion.

The following Sunday (28th June) Mark will be completing our study of Mark’s Gospel as we read chapter 13v24-37. So here is my final ‘Mark on Mark’ below. And look out for a forthcoming ‘mini-series’ during the summer.

Mark on Mark

Mark 13v24-37 shifts from the turbulence of the present age to the decisive intervention of God. Cosmic imagery signals the unveiling of the Son of Man in authority, with the fig tree parable pointing to the need for discernment - very necessary for the people of God. The passage concludes with exhortations to watchfulness as sustained readiness for the coming of the King.

June Church Members’ Meeting

The Church Meeting for June will take place on Monday 22nd. Please see below for the agenda.

Agenda

June charity offering - Wales Air Ambulance

“Wales Air Ambulance is an all-Wales charity providing critical care 24/7 to those suffering a life or limb-threatening injury or illness. Without your support, we simply wouldn’t exist, and those people suffering their worst day wouldn’t receive the advanced care that they need. Help us to keep our helicopters in the air and rapid response vehicles on the road and save lives today.”

Prayer Meetings

Throughout July and August the Monday evening meetings will stop, but there will be a morning meeting on Thursdays - see below.

Church Anniversary

Our Church Anniversary will be on 5th July with guest speaker Rev. Tim Rowlands from Evangelical Alliance. The service will be followed by a buffet, and all are invited to stay for that.

Church Magazine

The deadline for the summer issue will be Sunday 5th July. Please send items to John Loebl.

July Charity Offering - St David’s Hospice Care

From their first year of operation, caring for six patients, St David’s Hospice Care has grown to become one of the UK’s largest provider of hospice at home care, now caring for over 3,700 patients and families.
