Fellowship News (November 2019)

November 4, 2019

No warmth, no cheerfulness, no healthful ease,

No fruits, no flowers, no leaves, no birds -
November! (Thomas Hood)

But may our November be ‘Yes’ to the Lord and full of prayer for his people and his work:
Please see Connect magazine for specific prayer requests.

My Church Our Mission – the local church as God’s base camp for mission

November 4, 2019

If you have never been to a GBM Annual Mission Day then I would encourage you to put the date in your diary for next year, Saturday 24th October

The Amalfi Coast with Oak Hall

November 4, 2019

Not everybody is asked to write about their Summer holiday, and if it was just about a lovely time in Sorrento, beautiful scenery, eating pizza, pasta and ice cream etc…( Although all that was wonderful) you might not want to read on. But going with Oak Hall made it very different,

Place of delight and joy (Thought for November 2019)

November 4, 2019

November sees us into the shorter days of autumn (shorter in terms of the daylight hours, that is) and a time to turn the central heating on and break out the hats, scarves and gloves that have been hidden away all summer. For some, with the prospect of Christmas around the corner, it is a
time [...]

Henry Alford’s hymn puts it like this -
All is safely gathered in, ere the winter storms begin.
So therefore we would say -
Come, ye thankful people, come, raise the song of harvest-home.

October 8, 2019

Mark 1: 16-18 – Jesus calls his first disciples, or was that the perfect fishing lesson?
16 As Jesus walked beside the Sea of Galilee,
he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting
a net into the lake, for they were fishermen.
17 ‘Come, follow me,’ Jesus said, ‘and I will
send you out to fish for people.’

Be anxious for nothing (Thought for August 2019)

September 1, 2019

I was reading an article today (27th August) about anxieties that particularly millennials suffer from. Specifically, it was about ‘Errand paralysis’ — a condition where errands pile up on you and you just simply can’t get around to doing them, not necessarily because you run out of time, but because they grow into big monsters [...]

A Life Changing Year

September 1, 2019

Just over a year ago my grandson Alden and I were hit by a van while we were lying on the grass at the Ardingly show ground. We were crushed under the front bumper and both sustained serious injuries. Many people have described our survival as a miracle and I truly believe that God saved [...]
