Hi all, following discussions last night:  We have decided to meet at the Coop on Teehey Lane at 10.45 a.m. on Saturday with others from Bebington Churches together.  However, when others leave to go to Somerfield to sing there, we’ll stay at the Coop to serve drinks and mince pies to shoppers.mince_pies See you there :-)

Is God Fair?

Hi all, yesterday as part of the ‘Is God…’ series, the sermon was Is God Fair?  It considered aspects of Predestination and Grace.  As promised the notes from that talk are here for you.  I’ll try to do this on a regular basis.  Please contact me if you wish to discuss the content at all.  Love, Dave

I also read an excerpt from My Dear Child by Colin Urquhart, called ‘I love you because I love you’.  This book can be found here…
