Home Group Notes for Sunday 12th February 2012

Sermon theme: Called to Live by His Word 2 Timothy 3: 10-17

1) Are you eager to know God's Word, receive God's Word, and live by God's Word? If yes, bearing in mind that activisim/busyiness is one of the main hindrances to hearing God's Word, share in your group how you cut out time to read, meditate, and study God's word. 

2) The Apostle Paul says, 'all scripture is breathed out by God, and it is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting (improving), and for training in righteousness'. What is your personal experience of this?

3) He continues, 'so that people who belong to God may be complete, fitted out, and ready for every good work'. What 'good work' do you think you have been fitted out to do for God? 

Alpha at St Mark's Day-time course starting soon

We are hoping to hold a daytime Alpha Course later in the Spring. Please let us know if you would be interested in doing the course and what day and time are best for you. Email stmarkchcentre2@aol.com or call 01244 675372.

Have you ever stopped to consider the meaning of life!Take a minute or two now and answer our question.

Alpha is an opportunity to explore the meaning of life in an informal and friendly environment. It's a tremendous opportunity to find out more about the Christian faith.  Alpha consists of a series of 10 talks, looking at topics such as 'Who is Jesus?' and 'Why and how do I pray?'. We meet for a meal and each talk is followed by discussion in a small group where everyone is welcome to contribute their opinion and ask questions.

You don’t have to come every week – just pop along for the first night and see what you think. No pressure.

Lenten course on prayer

Our Lenten course on prayer starts  with a service of Holy Communion on Ash Wednesday 22nd February at 8.00pm and then every Wednesday throughout Lent at St. Mark's between 7.45pm - 9pm, starting with coffee.


Hennie would very much like to encourage the whole church, especially all the Home Groups, and other groups that meet during the week, to join Churches Together at St. Mark's for an hour to think, and learn more about the 'call to prayer'. 


Each week will be looking at different ways of praying, and learning from different streams of spirituality, and looking at different ways of using the Bible in Prayer. 


"I think this Lenten Course is an important part of our seeking God's Vision, and a helpful tool as we seek to grow in our relationship with God. I look forward to seeing you." Hennie
