Other Notes
- Note the special Good News Service to commemorate the beginning of 2025. We will be singing New Years’ Hymns, praying and reading the Bible with the new year in mind, and listening to a New Year sermon full of the good news of the Lord Jesus Christ. Do invite friends. Poster here:
- The Church-Vision meetings are an opportunity to—over two evening-sessions—talk about the direction that we need to pursue as a church this year. Members should make every effort to be at both sessions and to contribute to discussions… they’ll be great!
- Rhodri is at the Mid-Wales and Borders Fraternal in Newtown on Tuesday the 20th.
- The Pilgrim’s Progress – A Guided Tour will be back up and running by the 19th. This 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: 6th & 20th | Small-Group Prayer-Meetings: 13th & 27th
- 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 Luke 13-24. 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 1-20.
- 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.
