A message from your pastor,
Christmas is on the way and the goose is looking scared. I won't go on about Christmas too much just yet, as I will send a Christmas message around nearer the time.
Welcome to our church, we love it here and we hope you will too!
September and October saw a busy period in our church, we looked at the five core values of our church. Can you remember them? We also started a Sunday school and crèche to which we are indebted to Cathie for her expertise and service (if you would like to serve in the Sunday school speak to me please). We also started a youth alpha course which is on every Sunday night at the vicarage between 7pm and 9.30pm, 6 young people are enrolled on that course, please pray for them. We are continuing to look at the end times in our Wednesday night bible study. A big well done to our money mini choir who took part in the recent festival alleluia in Fuengirola, you made us proud.
We had our first Church meal together since I arrived, which coincided with Sonyas 90th birthday celebrations. Where the church blessed her with a gift and some flowers. Wow it's been a busy but worthwhile period.
A big thank you to all those who serve in the Calahonda church, it doesn't go unnoticed and it's much appreciated by me and the rest of the church council.
We are looking forward to some special services. Remembrance Sunday, our missions gift day with Steve Norman guest speaking and of course our Carol service in December.
Please keep on praying for all at the Calahonda a Church as we endeavour to tell all about who Jesus is and what he means to us.
May God richly bless you and yours in these coming months.
Rev. David J Hodgson
