What is faith? Do you need a faith? Do you inherit a faith?
For anyone interested in exploring what the christian faith is about we invite you to join pone of our house groups. Here you will begin a journey that will help you to understand what the Christian faith is about, and more importantly what it has to do with you. Christianity has a lot to offer you, if you want to find it.
Contact us to day for more information.
Paul and Rachel Elliston:
Paul and Rachel are now safely in Lima. Their journey was unexpectedly quite good. Their experience of Delta on the way home from Quito (Ecuador) last November was a poor one and Paul told me that they would try and avoid Delta in the future. This time it seems that delta have reformed, and Paul said that they would consider using them again.
They arrived at 4am (Lima local time) which is currently 5 hours behind UK time. They tried to sleep a little but not very successfully. So they now start the process of re-acclimatization in a new time zone and in new climatic conditions (It's hot). They need to get Rachels vis sorted so that she is clear to teach at the language school in Huancayo.
As we receive updates from them we will upload their news and make newslatters available to read/download (see links in right column).
If you missed their visits and would like to support them contact John and Jane Smith or The Pastor for information.
The Wincanton Window
For some time the town has been served well by "The Journal" a printed monthly magazine. Unfortunately the Journal had to withdraw because of lack of advertising revenue to sustain it.
A group of local business people have come up with a new w ay to support the town. They have created The Wincanton Window, an online magazine dedicated to Wincanton and the surrounding area. This online facility is not limited to monthly print deadlines, so can accomodate any article submitted subject to sensible controls.
This is an exciting new project which is already up and running and attracting 500+ visits through word of mouth recommendation only. One of the importnat areas (apart from the interesting articles) is the community diary section. This is open to all, so if you are running a special event that you want people to know about please submit as early as possible to the Diary via the web site www.wincantonwindow.co.uk or delibver your information to the Town Clerk at the council office in market Place (below the clock tower).
From our fellowship point of view the pastor is already using the diary and submitting information. Well done Andrew. Will also be submitting articles about Paul and rachel's progress. At the time of writing an appointment has been arranged for the editor (John Baxte to meet them on Thursday 21st to interview them before they head to Paul's family in Kent.
