Crafty Chatters
Do you enjoy craft? A few of us will be getting together to craft, have a chat and catch up over a cup of tea or coffee. We meet on the 1st Friday of every month from 7.30pm - 9pm. If you are interested in coming along or want to know more, have a chat with Sue Rock or Ruth Evans.
Coffee Mornings and Service
The coffee mornings take place on the 2nd Tuesday of each month. We also have a monthly daytime service with traditional hymns and a short reflection at 11 am on the fourth Tuesday of every month.
The next coffee morning is on the 8th October
Members@ Meetings
Sunday 17th November after the morning service (bring your own lunch)
Light Party
We are looking to assemble a team to help deliver the annual light party for the young people in our community. The evening is a fantastic opportunity to meet, greet and share the hope we have with a range of children and parents from the community as we open our doors to spread light, on what is normally a dark night.
Please contact Tim directly to offer your help for the evening (31st October) and we will start shaping the evening around the number of volunteers we have.
Baptism
We're planning to begin the new year with a baptism service on Sunday 5th of January! If you're considering baptism, please let Jon know. There will be three sessions on
baptism on Tuesday evenings at 8pm from the 12th of November. If you'd simply like to find out more (with no pressure on you to get baptised in January) then we'd love to see you there!
Calling all Musicians and Singers
If you're an instrumentalist/singer who loves to express their worship through music and song we want to invite you to come a Jam Session at 4pm, on Sunday 24th of November. If you're coming please let me Jon know so we can plan for enough music and words to be made available! "Let our praise be Your welcome!"
Bins
As you may be aware, in the church porch , lounge and hall we have three separate bins (one for general waste and the other two for specific recycling items) When you dispose of rubbish, if you could place it in the appropriate bin we would really appreciate it. We now have the same category of outside bins so it will be easier to transfer rubbish from the inside to outside bins if the correct items are put in the appropriate bin. Many thanks for your co-operation with thi?

Weekly Groups
Bethel Kids Club on a Friday night between 6pm and 7:15pm in the usual place, this is still for school years 4 - 7. Please encourage the young people to share with friends-new term, new time, new day and hoping for a whole bunch of new young people.
Bethel Youth on a Friday night between 7pm and 9pm for School Years 7 - 13
You will notice a slight overlap in time and ages, this is so the kids and youth are familiar with one another and it makes transition between the groups easier in the long run.
