SUNDAY

10:30am Morning Worship

A varied programme, but centred around a message relating Christian Biblical insights to daily life. Communion is celebrated on the third Sunday. Children are welcome, and share in communion with us.

1:00pm Worship in Punjabi

With the Asian Christian Living Fellowship (Anglican tradition)

WEDNESDAY

6:00pm Brownie Guides (7 - 10 years)

8:00pm - 9:30pm Bible Study

This meets in the Coffee Lounge and Library at Collinwood Road URC (junction of Collinwood Rd and London Rd, Risinghurst, Headington) and draws people of several churches and of no church affiliation. Led by the Revd Dick Wolff, it started the current series in Sept 2008 as a fairly in-depth introduction to the Bible for people who have no previous knowledge of it, and is now exploring various themes according to what the members want.

Soon, by popular request, we will be tackling the Book of Revelation. Although its powerful imagery has inspired many artists and poets, it has also provided dangerous ideas for the lunatic fringe (not so fringe in the United States) who imagine that it is some sort of scientific writing. Books on ‘the Rapture’ have broken sales records in the US. Since it is impossible to grasp much of what it is about without understanding the imagery of the First Temple in Jerusalem (built by Solomon), we will be spending a couple of initial sessions getting to grips with that.

Watch this space!
