Easter
This is what Holy Week is now looking like – please be thinking about what you would like to be part of and who you could invite. Thank you for all the donations and offers of support. Please keep bringing your chocolate Easter eggs and we need just one more person to help on Good Friday morning please…….

Giving:
As a church we are so appreciative of the sacrificial giving from many in the congregation. We do not receive any financial assistance from a central place so we rely entirely on what is given by your faithful giving. Thank you!!
If you would like to give to the work and ministry of the church please collect a form from the table at church which will enable you to give via the recommended route of the Parish Giving Scheme (PGS). However, people are welcome to give in whatever way suits them:
-PGS
-Cash donations box on a Sunday morning
-Card reader available Sunday mornings or
-Directly into the church bank (speak to Lis Wells for the bank details – lis.wells@outlook.com).

Discipleship:
Recommended reading:
You can now find on the church website our ‘recommended reading list’. Very often we recommend books related to a particular sermon series or are being read as part of the reading group, so here is the link that will take you straight to that part of the website:
Recommended Reading – Gleneagles Anglican Church
Tuesday Teaching Evenings:
We put aside Tuesday evenings in the church diary for extra teaching series. The first part of the year we will be doing Alpha instead.
Connect Groups:
Our midweek small groups help us to:
i) ‘Connect with Jesus’
- time to study scripture
- time to apply scripture to our lives and perhaps naming what difference this is going to make to our everyday lives and asking one another next time we meet
- time to pray for one another about our daily lives (which might include hearing from God for one another and practising the spiritual gifts)
ii) ’Connect with each other’
- time to build friendships
- a place to be honest about our daily lives, to care for and support one another
- time for mutual discipling between meetings (it’s not all about the meeting)
iii) ’Connect with the wider community’
- time to talk, equip one another & pray for the people both in our daily lives and church ministries we’re involved in.
You can join any time by contacting one of the group facilitators or Revd Dawn Airey.
Connect Group Facilitators are:
i)Monday afternoon (fortnightly 2-4pm): Carol Maycock
ii)Monday evening (fortnightly 7.00pm): Elizabeth Holbrook
iii) Wednesday evening (fortnightly at 7.30pm): Rob Seaman
iv) Wednesday evening (fortnightly 8.00pm): Ben & Livvi Haughton-Scales
