Church Notices
FWO: The Committee have agreed that the last day for offerings to be received and included in the 2021 financial accounts will be Sunday 19th December. Any monies received after this date will be included in the 2022 financial accounts.
CHRISTMAS FOOTBALL: We kick off our post Christmas fitness regime at Seaview Football Ground with football on 28th December 2021 at 6:30pm, followed by food for all afterwards. All welcome Costs: £10 per person (Football and Food) or £5 per person for Food only. See Peter Shepherd for more details.
Fellowship Committee: It had been hoped that circumstances would allow us to hold our annual Christmas Quiz in church and in person on the 27th of December; however, the current trajectory of omicron and PCI reinstituting mask wearing throughout the service seems to imply caution is needed. With regret, it is felt that this year’s quiz event ought to be postponed again. A possible alternative for the congregation is to try a virtual quiz provided by Macmillan Cancer: https://gamesnight.macmillan.org.uk/quiznight.html. This would allow the dedicated church quizzers to access an online resource remotely as well as creating funding for a charity which is close to all our hearts at this time. There are also opportunities to go to a virtual escape room or take part in a role play whodunnit. All of these activities may be completed from the safety of the home and with an awareness of raising funds for an immensely worthwhile charity.
New Years Day Walk: Our annual New Years Day walk will take place at Ballyclare Park where we will walk a couple of laps – more if you are keen! Please meet at the Mill Road car park, Ballyclare at 13.30pm on Saturday 1 January 2022. Well behaved dogs on leads welcome but please bring your own tea or coffee.
Thank you to everyone who contributed to the Newtownabbey Foodbank Appeal for this Christmas period. As always the generosity of our church family continues to amaze. A gift of £800 has been given to the staff at the Newtownabbey Foodbank who greatly appreciate all our efforts.
