We’d also love to invite you to our home for dinner to get to know you
better and for you to ask any questions that you might have. Our next
Newcomers’ Dinner Party is Friday 17th October - 8pm at our home.

If you want to get involved at Severn here are 4 great ways to do
that:
Small Groups
There are lots of fun and exciting midweek small groups happening
this autumn term - go to www.severnvineyard.org/smallgroups to
choose one and sign up online. Alternatively pick up a small group
card from the information desk today! For more information speak to
Dan Green (07816 638715).
Volunteering
When you get involved, you feel like you own the place! There are
lots of opportunities to get involved. Pick up a ‘Getting Involved’
leaflet from the information desk to find out more.
Sunday Gatherings
Our weekly Sunday Gatherings (10.30am - 12.00pm and 7.30pm 9pm term-time) are informal and relaxed, a great place to introduce
friends who are not familiar with church. These gatherings inspire
and encourage us to connect with God and celebrate what God is
doing within the wider community.
Giving Financially
By giving financially to Severn, you are investing in the health and
growth of a vibrant community that will positively influence our city.
For more information on how to give financially (including tax efficient
giving), pick up the ‘Giving financially to the church’ form on the
information desk.
