Bob Bartindale (Connexional Local Preachers' Officer) will be leading a day for those involved with worship in our churches; Ministers, Local Preachers, Worship Leaders and Supernumerary Ministers which includes a training session and afternoon tea.
The culmination of this day is a Circuit Service to recognise and appreciate the dedication and service of Local Preachers with some of the Local Preachers in our circuit receiving Long Service Certificates. Bob Bartindale will preach at this service and present the certificates.
All are welcome and are encouraged to attend the Circuit Service at 6:00 pm on Saturday 1st October 2022 at St James Road Methodist Church in Shirley to show their thanks for all of the dedicated service that our local preachers have given over the years and continue to give.
...how are they to call on one in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in one whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone to proclaim him?
