Other Notes

  • Note the special Good News Service all about the love of God on the 8th. We will be singing hymns about the love of God, praying, and reading the Bible with God’s love in mind, and listening to a sermon all about the love of God. Do invite friends.
  • The pre-prayer-meeting pancakes idea is that since many of us will have pancakes on the brain, we thought it would be nice to eat some together before the Prayer-Meeting. It’s also half-term, so perhaps younger ones can come along and stay for prayer-meeting. 
  • The Pilgrim’s Progress – A Guided Tour is a course curated by Ligonier Ministries which we’re running every other Monday in the basement. Derek Thomas (who was converted in Aber, became a member at AP and served as a deacon for a short time with us in the 1970s) is the video tour-guide. We listen to him for twenty minutes or so and then we talk over some discussion questions. We aim to be done within the hour.

  • Whole-Church Prayer-Meetings: 3rd & 17th | Small-Group Prayer-Meetings: 10th & 24th
    • There are three small-groups led by each of the elders. Speak to Rhodri, Ian, or Eric if you are interested in joining one of the small-groups.
  • The weekly Women’s Fellowship meets on Wednesday mornings, in AP basement at 10:30am (TBC in Sunday notices).
    • Causeway continues to meet between 11 and 12:30 every Wednesday, it is a time of worship organised by the staff of the homes that grew out of Plas Lluest (the home for adults with learning disabilities set up by Alfred Place four decades ago). There is singing, reading, prayer, and sharing of the word, all geared at the Plas Lluest residents and others with additional needs. The format is usually singing until around 12, then Rhodri speaks, then there’s prayer, and then there’s tea and biscuits with an optional bring your now packed-lunch, followed by some more singing. It takes place in the Community Space in Tesco. All welcome (you don’t have to stay for the whole time).

  • The monthly Bible-Reading-Groups’ are currently on Leviticus 1-20. All church-members are encouraged to read the chapters and to consider Christ as you do. Those attending the groups (Women’s Evening / Men’s Breakfast / Bible Club), do keep a note of observations and questions to share with/ask one another. The next Bible-Book-section will be Leviticus 21-27.  
  • When able to, those manning the Book-Table go out every Saturday (weather & personnel-permitting) 11am-12:30pm; members, speak to Eric if you are interested in joining the work.
