Japan – Beneath the Surface, Sunday evening 10th September

We are looking forward to hearing from Pastor Hirata, who has been helping Alison Orr with Japanese ministry in Dublin while completing Doctoral studies at Union College. He will share about Japanese culture and Christianity, the state of the church in Japan and some of the challenges faced by Japanese Christians. From 5:30pm to 6:30pm, there will be the opportunity to sample some Japanese food, learn some origami and write your name in Japanese calligraphy.

Worship Team:  We are always encouraged and excited when our kids lead us in praise. We want them to serve alongside us as we lead worship. From October 2023 we hope to be able to incorporate young musicians within the band, playing alongside our current musicians, for one or two songs, one Sunday a month. They will be given the music well in advance and then come along on a Thursday evening from 7 – 7:30pm to practice with us. We will have a further practice on Sunday morning before the service. If your child (up to 18) plays an instrument and would like to play with the band then please contact Helen Duff on 07739 473258 for further information.

ROADWORKS: Sunday 17th September: There will be NO access to church carpark next Sunday as the Antrim Road will be closed. Surfacing work is being done from bus stop through the traffic lights, however,  PEDESTRIAN access at the bus stop side steps still in use. Please park in Farmley carpark.
