Hi everyone,
This Sunday Rosanna is preaching to us on Romans 8 and adoption as God’s children. We are now officially half way through this awesome letter!
As before, I would recommend catching up on the sermons and also watching the next home group video if you have time (available here), we can then discuss this stuff at the Thursday bible study (12noon in Holy Trinity Paulton this week).
‘Men in Shed’ has now moved to the Farrington Inn (8pm Wednesday’s) and shall now be known as ‘Theology on Tap’ - if you want to unpack your questions and thoughts from Sunday in a more relaxed setting.
Also coming up in Paulton is the Board Games night, Friday 10th 5-9pm, come join us for fun, games and tasty snacks.
There is still time to donate to the re-ordering in Paulton. If you are in a position to support this transformation of the worship space in the church then you can use the details below:

If you want to continue tracking with some of the sermon ideas as they develop I have included some more links to useful content that can help to keep us on the same 'wavelength'. This week a great conversation about the surprising work of the Holy Spirit, with some very useful notes on how Jesus answers questions.
The Truth about the Holy Spirit
Philosophize this: Simone Weil

COMING UP...
Knit and Natter meet in the back room of Paulton church on the first Wednesday of each month from 2 to 4pm. The next meeting is on Wednesday 2nd September 2026. Please note that there is no meeting in August.
Everyone is welcome to come along and join the group, enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and a cake and have a good natter!
TGIF is on every Friday and Monday from 10am to 11.30am for coffee, cake, playtime and good chatting - you can find the latest details on Facebook here. (Not during the school holidays)
Morning prayer is taking place at 9.30am Wednesday in Paulton and Thursday in High Littleton. It begins with 15 minutes of quiet reflection, followed by Common Worship morning prayer.
The Church of England have updated their Morning Prayer APP. You can now listen to morning prayer from the app. I would encourage you all to take this up as a daily practice, it is a great way to grow a pattern of prayer and learn the rhythm of responses each day.
You can download the app here: https://www.chpublishing.co.uk/apps/daily-prayer

Every blessing to you all.
