CHRISTMAS ALONE 2008
Sele School -
Christmas Day
A traditional lunch will be served followed by
entertainment and tea. Transport will be laid on for those who need it.
Churches Together makes no charge but obviously needs all the help it
can get from the community and all the churches to make this day a
success. Financial help is needed and gifts of cakes, shortbread and
mince pies are important. We need help with preparation, cooking and
serving food, transport and entertainment.

Prayer
Some
people find it difficult to pray.
Imagine prayer as a grand old chat with a very dear
friend. You'd tell him or her all your bits of news,
what's worrying you or what's happening in your
life. You'd probably apologise for not keeping in
better contact or for neglecting to do something
they needed doing, or for losing your temper with
them, or whatever.
Lovely simple prayers which can be repeated over
and over again are little aspirations whispered
throughout the day to help us keep the mind
God-focussed, here are just a few:
"Lord, in Your Mercy hear my prayer"
"I give you my heart God, use it as You will"
"In You O Lord do I place my trust"
"My God, I love You"
"Lord I believe, help my unbelief!"

In our Villages, Towns & Cities.
All
churches are encouraged to support the HOPE08 campaign.
‘Hope’ is intended to provide churches of all shapes and sizes
throughout the UK with a fresh opportunity to work together across their
communities over a twelve month period. It is as relevant for urban or
rural churches irrespective of tradition.
In Hertford and the surrounding
towns and villages our "hope" is
that all our churches will work together to this aim and support the
events being planned throughout the year.
More details can be found on the HOPE08
website.
