Last week I met up with an old school friend and his wife – we had not seen each other for 26 years! Paul was one of the people who helped me find faith when I was a teenager. Sadly I don’t think he goes to church any more, but is very managing a home for people with learning difficulties near Chichester.

NEWS FROM LIZ AND MIKE Liz and Mike have a new grandson, Dexter, who was born last week to Liz & Mike’s son Ben, and his wife Marie Claire. Following last week’s news, there have been significant improvements and Dexter is now breathing independently. Ben & Marie Claire are waiting for the results of an MRI scan. Please pray especially for Marie Claire – she’s struggling to get her head round everything and isn’t sleeping. Liz and Mike say “There's still a long way to go but Dexter seems to be responding so please keep praying. We love you all and are very grateful that you're standing with us on this.”

It will soon be Back to Church Sunday, so please think and pray about who you might invite and bring along. It should really be on Sunday 30th September, but we already have that day booked for Harrison’s Baptism, so we will hold it the week before on Sunday 23rd and this will be at our 10.00 am service. We will aim to provide a visitor friendly service with a talk that expresses the heart of what it is to be a Christian. Please pick up a Back to Church Sunday invitation card and fill in. There’s a long article about Back to Church Sunday on the back of this week’s Link.
