We welcome you to our services and our fellowship; please join us for refreshments after the service in the Carpenter’s Arms. 

If you are new to Gibraltar please fill in one of our contact detail forms to enable us to keep in touch with you.

If you are visiting please sign our visitors book and let us know if you would like to receive future issues of our Church newsletter.

Please note that some translation may be taking place near you.

 

  Prayer times this week continue on Tuesday and Thursday at 7:00am, as well as on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at 7:00pm and on Friday at 6:00pm

‘When we work, we work, but when we pray, God works’.

 

  The Carpenter’s Arms is open daily from 9:30 to 2:00.  If you are not yet involved in this part of the church’s ministry I would ask that you please prayerfully consider if you can be involved in the future.

 

  The Ladies’ prayer and study group continues to meet on Tuesday at 5:30pm in the Carpenter’s Arms.

 

  The Alpha and Discipleship courses where cancelled because of the weather but will continue this Thursday. 

 

  The Lent Lunches at King’s Chapel started last Wednesday and will continue throughout Lent.  You are all welcome to come along and enjoy some soup with bread and cheese for £3.  It will be our turn to provide the soup and staffing on Wednesday 17th March and I will welcome volunteers.

 

  The Imit8 youth group meets on Fridays at 7:30pm for a time of fun, fellowship and study.

 

  We are trying to organise a Ramble in March to the area of ‘La Garganta del Capitan’ near Algeciras.  Unfortunately, due to a mix up with the dates for the Alpha weekend, we can not set a fixed date for this yet

  I still need input from many people to enable me to produce the Rotas and preaching plan for the next quarter.  Please let me know as soon as you can when you are and are nor available. 

 

  I would remind you that there are various House Groups which meet during the week.  I believe that it is essential for everyone to be part of a House group to ensure the development and growth of their Christian walk.

    

  I encourage everyone to put the dates for the Church weekend in Antequera in their calendars.  Two people have already talked to me about being baptised during the weekend and I would ask any others who are thinking about it to start talking with me about it.

 

  I would like to produce a Wesley Herald for Easter and would welcome some input from people please put your ‘creative’ hats on.  I would also welcome any donations towards the costs of printing.

 

  I remind you that the church is involved in a project with Compassion UK sponsoring children in church run projects in Kenya.  If you are still not involved in this and would like to sponsor a child please let me know and I will obtain some more profiles, it currently costs £21 a month to sponsor a child and it is a small price to pay to ensure that these children get a good start in life.

 

  I remind you that we welcome any comments anyone would like to make about our services, or any aspect of Church life, please feel free to speak to me or one of the Stewards.

 

  I encourage anyone with information of someone who is needing a visit to call me on 20040870 or 58137000, or email me at  minister@methodist.org.gi   We will endeavour, where possible to communicate any needs among the congregation so we can all pray together, and arrange to organise the necessary visits.

 

  While every effort is made to provide accurate information it is inevitable that some changes will occur.  I will always endeavour to advise when this happens and we will try and keep the information on the web page as accurate as possible.
