Crossroads Care
Are you looking after a relative or friend who couldn’t manage without your help?
The Crossroads Care Charity is available to provide emotional and practical support
through many methods including a Carers’ Café.
A new Carers’ Café is opening on 22nd October at Cedars Park from 10.30 to 12.30.
It’s designed for carers who are looking after someone at home, who wish to meet new
people and socialise. Booking is not required; refreshments will be provided free of charge.

“Inspire” Bible Fellowship
Most of you will know by now that the Reverend Geoff Cornell, our Superintendent

Geoff had a great gift of ministry, of thoughtful preaching, of pastoral care,
of creative expression of his faith and of careful administration, and he will be deeply
mourned and greatly missed. Please continue to pray for his immediate family.
There will be a private committal service.
