Hi everyone,
The summer holidays are nearly upon us and so the rhythm of life will be changing a little from next week. There will be no morning prayer or Tuesday and Friday toddlers. However we will still have Monday toddlers during August and also Family Fun sessions in Farrington and High Littleton (see below for details.
This Sunday we head into the last few weeks of the Romans series, looking at Romans 10 and how the gospel is shared.
The previous sermons are available in the link below and the home group video is available here. You are welcome to join us to discuss this stuff tonight at the Farrington Inn (8pm Wednesday’s) ‘Theology on Tap’ or at Rosanna's Thursday evening home group.
Also coming up in Paulton is the Trinity Table Breakfast club on Saturday 25th July and the deanery service in Chilcompton at 10.30am on Sunday the 26th of July. There will be no morning services in any of our churches on that day.
There will however be an evening quiet reflection service at 6pm that evening.

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.
