As St Helen's, Seaview, Brading & Yaverland look forward to joining together when our new Priest-in-Charge is appointed, you are invited to come along and at this, the second session of the six part course, "Leading your church into Growth". It will be a time of discussion and fellowship, tea and cakes, as we share together ideas and thoughts on how we can get our churches to grow in numbers, in commitment and in faith. These are exciting times in our villages. You are all very welcome.
Contact Paul & Mary or Caroline for further information or to share lifts.

School and Street Pastors
Training is starting shortly and you are invited to go and observe them in action. Might this be God's mission for you? School Pastors spend 2 hours weekly at lunchtime in schools currently Medina College and Carisbrooke College. BUT other schools are desperate for voluntary pastoral care. Street Pastors spend 4/5 hours on the streets of Ryde or Newport monthly, on a Friday or Saturday night, with a break [or two]. We also need Prayer Pastors to pray from base. For more information contact Caroline or Vanessa.

Women's World Day of Prayer
