Next church cleaning session
17th September between 9:30 – 11:30am.
All welcome to come along and help!
We are all members of the God’s church, so it would be lovely if a few more people could spend just half hour or so to help make the church look nice and clean; you don’t have to stop the whole time. The more helpers we have the quicker it can be done!
The more the merrier!
Thank you your help will be greatly appreciated

We do hope you can pop in and enjoy good fellowship and conversation.
