Evening Service Next Week
th
Sunday 26 of October is Bible Sunday and the theme of the evening
service on will be "How can we hear what the Bible has to say to us?"
If you are coming to the service it would be helpful if you could bring
with you a Bible (or more than one if you have several different
translations/ paraphrases). You may like to think of things which help
you listen to what the Bible is saying.
St John's Friendship Circle
It is that time of year again when we are asking for your help with the
Christmas Shoe Boxes. We will be making up the shoe boxes at our
meeting on Wednesday 22nd October. If you would like to help but feel
unable to provide articles, a contribution to the transport costs would
be very much appreciated. Last year the cost was £2 per box.
Michael Cooper.

Bangor Street Pastors
Bangor Street Pastors are holding their third annual coffee morning at
Penrallt on Saturday 25th October. This is a great opportunity for
people to find out more about what they do. There are currently twelve
more people being trained as Street Pastors. Amongst them is the
first one from St. John’s Church, Joy Ostle, who will be commissioned
along with the others at Penuel Chapel on Friday November 7 th
The Daily Post newspaper will be giving away £25,000 to charities
across North Wales and I have registered the Bangor Street Pastors to
receive a share. If you read the Daily Post we would be most grateful
if you would collect the tokens each day and give them to us at
Penrallt Chapel between 10.00 a.m. and 2.00 p.m., Monday to Friday.
The promotion runs from Tuesday, 14th October, until early December.
The more tokens we collect the more money we can raise for the
Street Pastors. Via Paul Rowlinson, by email.
