GET YOUR FACTS RIGHT !!!!
Thursdays at 7.00 pm.
The Watch, Princess Street
It’s important to get your facts right. I recently got very frustrated when
the Burton Mail printed a story about our planning application for a new
entrance to Moor Street. They only consulted me after the story had been
printed and didn’t seem to want to know that the entrance was mainly to
improve general pedestrian safety and parking access.
Saturdays at 8.30 am
Prayer meeting at Moor Street each week

But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those
who have fallen asleep. 1 Cor. 15:20 ESV
Imagine then my frustration when Direction Magazine took up the Mail
story. Despite my offer to write the story for them which they refused (I
wanted to get it right), my answers to a few questions were skewed to say
things that were, as far as I was concerned, not wholly accurate.
In both these cases the motives of the writers were good, they wanted to
be positive about our Church. However, it is always crucial to get your
facts right.
Last Friday of each month at 7.30 pm.
Men’s Fellowship meeting
As we celebrate the Easter story, isn’t it wonderful to know that our salvation is not based on a ‘positive spin’ of the events surrounding the empty
tomb. The evidence for the resurrection of Jesus is overwhelming. Death
has been defeated. By trusting in Christ’s death and resurrection we can
be sure of eternal life.
Small groups meet at different dates and frequencies.
