Weekly Update from St Paul's & St Barnabas

Greetings to all our cherished members and visitors. As we step into another week filled with opportunities for growth, fellowship, and worship, we are excited to share important updates and initiatives within our church community.

Vestry Meeting and Upcoming Events

We kindly remind our congregation of the upcoming Vestry Meeting on Monday evening, facilitated by Bryan Lacey. Your insights and presence are vital as we deliberate on matters concerning the well-being and direction of our church.

Our weekly schedule sees a slight adjustment with no Bible Study taking place on Wednesday, 14th February. However, we look forward to our collective prayer and worship sessions on Sunday, 18th February, starting with a Prayer Meeting at 9:45 am followed by Morning Prayer at 10:30 am. The Evening Prayer will also be held at 19:00.

Continuing on Wednesday, 21st February, our 'Deeper' Bible Study and Prayer Meeting will resume at 19:30, focusing on the conclusion of our exploration through Colossians. Additionally, starting from Thursday, 22nd February at 11 AM, we are introducing a new weekly session dedicated to Bible Study, Prayer, and Fellowship.

Pastoral Care

For the forthcoming week, pastoral duties will be managed by Rev Nathan Ervine from the Church of the Good Shepherd, Monkstown. Should you require pastoral support, please do not hesitate to reach out by calling our church number at 028 9600 5015.

"Let us hold on to the confession of our hope without wavering, since he who promised is faithful." - Hebrews 10:23, CSB
