Churches Together in Weston-super-Mare and District invites you to an evening of worship and celebration, with a Ukrainian flavour, and a short AGM!
Wednesday 19th October 2022 - 7.30pm at Locking Castle Church, Jasmine Way, WsM, BS22 9JW.
CTWD's President, Deacon Gary Hoare said, 'Our nation, and more locally, our town is coming through one of the darkest and most challenging times in our recent history. There are economic, political and international challenges still ahead. But despite all this, we can be proud of the local Church and community, who pull together when things are tough... looking out for and responding to the needs of the less fortunate, and reaching out to those who have been displaced from other nations.'
'More recently, we have welcomed many people from Ukraine. I have been moved deeply as I have witnessed the way that the Churches have responded in a practical way to their needs as well as in prayer, and offering spiritual support. There are many heartbreaking stories. But this situation has also brought the best out of our Churches and community. I would want to honour and celebrate the people and also their motivation - their faith and hope found in Jesus Christ!'
Do join us for this evening, when Malcolm Bowen from HT Weston and colleagues share with us how they have been serving the needs of these friends from Ukraine. There are some truly inspirational stories.'
This meeting is open to all and includes a talk from Gary Hoare along with a short AGM. Worship will be led by a team from Locking Castle Church.
