God our redeemer,
you have delivered us from the power of darkness
and brought us into the kingdom of your Son:
grant, that as by his death he has recalled us to
life,
so by his continual presence in us he may raise us
to eternal joy;
through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord,
who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
Prayer
New to Christ Church?

ask one of the Welcomers for
information.

Nepal Appeal
Dear Friends, our hearts are telling us and the
Lord is speaking to us, to ask us as a church to
help the people of Nepal.
If you can help by donating some money, please
do.
A box will be put in the church foyer. If you need
any more information please contact Wendy
Breward or Andy Smith. Thank you.
Projection Team
It's been great to have a few new people joining
the projection team.
Please encourage anyone new behind the
computer, especially as they learn what to do,
however it’s probably best to do that after the
service?!
Are you free on Sunday 2 August?
We need someone to help out with the laptop on
this particular Sunday as it’s our only gap in the
new rota. Please speak to Helen if you can
volunteer for this date; the whole team would
appreciate your help!
