Thank You Dateline: 31 May Report by Pastor Willie Seeing how perfect God’s plans are, a pastor in Papua New Guinea shares about his flight with MAF to attend a conference. Although low clouds delayed his arrival at the conference, read on to see how God’s timing was just right…. After a short night’s sleep, we were ready to be at the airstrip at 5.30 am. It was a cold and foggy morning as we walked down our mountain to the airstrip. The Wycliffe Bible Translators’ aviation bus came to pick us up; then we waited and waited. Those low, thick clouds were preventing the MAF plane from taking off from Goroka to come and pick us up so that we could go to Christian Leader’s Training College (CLTC) to attend the Langham Preaching Conference. When the plane did finally arrive, we were all so very excited! Now we could get to CLTC to learn more about how to design and better present our sermons. As we flew up above Aiyura Valley it was so very exciting, for some of us who had never flown before. I saw my house and church and it made me smile. This is how God sees us from way up… Mon 4 Jun No prayer meeting this week as it is a Bank Holiday We were a bit anxious that, due to the delay, we would be missing out on those very important first moments of the course. It appeared that we had arrived and were about to land, but as I looked out my window I realized this was not the CLTC Bible School. We were in the middle of nowhere. There were some people on the small airstrip below; wow, this was serious. There was a man on a stretcher with a drip. He was severely wounded. The people had been trying to get him to medical attention, but no one had been able to get to them to help him. But MAF came, and praise God; there was enough space for him on the stretcher and his two caretakers. Tue 5 to Sat 9 Jun 10 am to 4 pm Craft Exhibition @ St. Paul’s including displays from local schools, Art Club, wood carving, ceramics and pottery. Everyone welcome to view it and perhaps join in with Caroline’s Pottery Painting class on 6th, 7th and 9th June. I started feeling so guilty that earlier I had been upset that we were going to be late and miss our first session. For the sake of this man, we had arrived at exactly the right moment. God is His Jehovah Jireh too. That we were going to be a few hours late for our very first session that morning now became just a minor detail. I was so blessed to witness MAF helping out people in dire need. Meetings and Events for this coming week: CHBC Housegroups—meet at various times and in different homes during the week. If you wish to join a housegroup please contact Martin Rumney for further details. (See him on Sunday or find his contact details in the Church Directory). Wed 6 Jun 10 am Ladies Coffee Morning—Jubilee walk at Branksome Chine Thu 7 Jun 7 pm The Beacon Church in Mitchell Road, Canford Heath, have the very great privilege to welcome Brother Yun (The Heavenly Man) along with his agents Flame International. Sat 9 Jun King’s Cru half term holiday 2 We arrived at CLTC during the break time, got settled and ready for the next session to begin. As we studied we realised that for us, who had never flown before, what a blessing it was. We had experienced exactly what the teacher was explaining. God, Your plan is so great, and You know all the details. Thank You for the network of ministries that You provide to strengthen the work of the Church in Papua New Guinea. 7 Angie’s recipe for Coronation Chicken Looking further ahead: Events and notices for JUNE I promised a number of folk that I would put the recipe for Coronation Chicken in the News Sheet so here it is.......

There is a great tradition throughout the history of the church of God’s people setting aside time to pray at regular religious communities but for most of us, in amongst our points throughout the day. It sill happens within the religious communities but for most of us, in amongst our busy lives, stopping what we are doing for a time of extended prayer is more than we can manage. On Pentecost Sunday we launched the Lord’s Prayer Challenge, a call for us as a church to join the challenge of committing to pray together the prayer that Jesus gave us every day for 30 days. Please also put the date in your diary and think and pray about who you might invite. If you would like to do an act please let Angie & Mark know OTHER NOTICES Help Needed— We need Volunteers to help with the new youth group starting up in June. It will be for teens between 13 and 18 on Friday evening’s from 7.30 till 9.30pm. For more details please contact Hayley Hills or Sarah Bladen at CHBC or Paul Brayshaw or Adrian Palmer at St Pauls Church. CANFORD HEATH GIRLGUIDING NEEDS YOU! – we need new adult leaders/helpers (18+) to help us at weekly meetings, so that we can continue to offer Girlguiding to girls on Canford Heath.

If you are interested, please contact Helen Metcalfe to find out more. Tel 01202 690621 / 07502 333468, or [email protected] .

The church has a motor mower and the job takes about 2 hours. If you can help us it would be very much appreciated, please sign the rota on the PCC notice board in the foyer and let Neil know. CHRISTIAN AID Thank you to everyone who helped in any way with Christian Aid week. The walkers raised £185 and the collection tins used outside Asda and with regular church / hall users, raised £120. So we are able to send a total of £305 to Christian Aid. Thank you again for your contributions. We are now retiring from our roles as Christian Aid representatives, so if anyone feels they are able to help out please do let the church wardens or office know. If you missed out there are some reminder cards at the back of the church- please feel free to take one. Just commit to praying the Lord’s Prayer at either or all of the times and it doesn’t matter where you are you can know that you will not be praying alone. Amazing things happen when God’s people come together in prayer. Wouldn’t it be wonderful to see God’s Kingdom come and His will being done in our own lives, in our church and across our community?
