Bible Reading
23 过了多年,埃及王死了。以色列人因做苦工,就叹息哀求,他们的哀声达于神。 24 神听见他们的哀声,就记念他与亚伯拉罕、以撒、雅各所立的约。 25 神看顾以色列人,也知道他们的苦情。
遣摩西领以色列人出埃及
7 耶和华说:“我的百姓在埃及所受的困苦,我实在看见了;他们因受督工的辖制所发的哀声,我也听见了。我原知道他们的痛苦。 8 我下来是要救他们脱离埃及人的手,领他们出了那地,到美好宽阔、流奶与蜜之地,就是到迦南人、赫人、亚摩利人、比利洗人、希未人、耶布斯人之地。
ANNOUNCEMENTS
PASTORAL VISITORS MEETING
There will be a short meeting after the service today in the Megaw Room for all those who are involved with pastoral visiting in our congregation and for those who have recently volunteered to help with this important area of our church life.
KOINONIA
On Thursday 13 February, Dr Robyn Atcheson, a local lecturer in social history, will talk about life and conditions in the rapidly expanding Victorian town of Belfast in the nineteenth century.
Meet at 10.30 am. All welcome.
SERMON DIGEST
Confused by the sermon? Got questions? You are welcome to join us for our first Sermon Digest, which is planned for Sunday 16th February. We will meet in the Cairns Room immediately after the service for no more than 20 minutes of Q&A with Rev. Paul.
Tea and coffee will be available!
SMALL GROUPS
Small Groups are starting again. We have a number of groups meeting at different times, in different places, that operate in different ways… so there should be a group to suit everyone! If you are interested in joining a group for this term, speak to Paul to find out more.
CHILDREN’S ACTIVITY AFTER CHURCH
As the number of children at coffee time has increased, we are aware of the need for some supervision in the St John’s Hall. If you would like to join a rota of volunteers to organise a game or activity for our children for half an hour after the church service, please email or speak to Sandy: sandykane48@proton.me.
If you would like to have a notice included in the announcement sheet, please email NewtownbredaAnnouncements@outlook.com
Please try to send your announcements to us by the Thursday prior to the Sunday service.
