This Sunday we celebrate the coming of the Holy Spirit at the Feast of Pentecost! We are delighted that Linda Pepper of Friends International will be our invited speaker; Linda started last autumn as Friends International worker at Essex University.
Since Pentecost marked the beginning of the Gospel being made available to the nations and all ages, there will be some World Music and some inter-generational storytelling and worship to begin with. Children will be invited to a creative activity upstairs with Naomi and Mark Snelling and friends. We'll find out a bit of Linda's story and then read Acts 2, 1-20 before the talk.
Wishing you a very Happy Pentecost!
PS At last week's AGM a number of papers were distributed. the Pledge and Electoral List papers can be picked up at Abbeygate at any time or downloaded here http://www.facebook.com/groups/208717309164931/
