Holiday Club - Desert Detectives
Once again the children from the surrounding estates flocked to 'Holiday Club' – this year to help the desert detectives find the "Mighty GodSword".
We had plenty helpers to ensure the children had a thoroughly enjoyable time while they learned some fresh lessons for life from the "Mighty God’s Word".

On Saturday 2nd August 2008, we hosted a meeting of men from the churches around Bryn Cross.
After a hearty breakfast and a short time of worship, we listened to a talk by
Dr KP Yohannen of the 'Gospel for Asia' Society, who challenged our commitment to support the work of reaching many millions of people in Asia who have never heard the Gospel of salvation in Jesus Christ.
Our hope is that this will be the first of a series of monthly meetings that will see men from different churches coming together to get to know one another, to worship, learn and to generally have a good time together.

On Saturday 22nd June 2008, the ladies from the church invited their friends to share a light breakfast together in the church.
The purpose was to remember those people in the world who are far less fortunate than we are and who are often exploited through receiving low payments for their produce.

The church gathered together on New Year's eve to enjoy a party together and to round off the old year and start the new with a short service of worship.
We were reminded that in God's service, He asks only that we follow His instructions and we can trust Him to make adequate provision for everything we need.

Church Anniversary
We celebrated our 127th Anniversary on Sunday the 4th November.
This proved to be a truly joyful time of worship and ministry of the Word of God.
Ray Peers was the preacher at both services, speaking in the morning of the certainty of God fulfilling His promises, and in the evening, warning of the need to be ready for the return of the Lord Jesus Christ.
It was also a pleasure to welcome Rachel Dixon for the first time as our guest soloist for the evening, who blessed us all singing of God's generosity toward us, the mind of our Creator and our passion for worship.
Recordings of the service are available in the Narthex for those who wish to hear them again and for those who were unable to be present. Alternatively

127th Sunday School Anniversary
On Sunday 6th May we celebrated the 127th Anniversary of our Sunday School.
The children and the grown ups came together to share their worship and to learn more about our Christian faith.
Afterwards, those who were able to stay, which seemed to be everybody, shared lunch together that included the usual butties, burgers, "triffle" and cake, along with some salad and fruit for the older ones.

If you missed a message or if you wish to hear a message again, most are now available to borrow on CD. They are on display in the Narthex.
You can also borrow them to lend to others who are not able to attend church or who you think may benefit from hearing them.
(If you want your own copy of a CD, that can also be arranged. If possible, we would appreciate a small donation toward the cost of materials – perhaps £1 or more or less – whatever you can afford.)
Alternatively, you can listen to a recent message on-line
