CHURCH OF THE ASCENSION - THE ANGLICAN
CHURCH IN HILTON, KZN
"EMAIL FLASH" - a quick highlight of
parish news & events plus occasional comment
THURSDAY 26 JANUARY 2012
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear parishioners
SERVICES THIS SUNDAY: 29 JANUARY @
7.00am & 9.00am
I look forward to leading both services
and preaching; my sermon theme is based
on Sunday's Gospel reading from Mark 1:
21-28 "Unclean
spirits? What on earth is that about?"
Music for worship...
We will be privileged to have Gill Watson
lead us with music on the piano at 7am
this Sunday and the Music Ensemble at 9am.
[As I wrote last week: If you play an
instrument - piano or guitar, drums or
saxophone, whatever - we would love to
have you as part of our team of musicians
who enhance the music of differing styles
we use across all our services. What we
offer in our services ... is what members
of the congregation are able to offer us!]
SUNDAY SCHOOL CONTINUES EACH SUNDAY
... starting in the church during the 9.00am
service and moving to the hall, in 3
age-related groups. We take children aged 4
and older, up to Grade 7. Wendy Norman-Smith
and her team have reported good numbers
returning in the past 2 weeks and that "we
seem to have got off to a smooth start".
With love from your parish priest,
Nic
