A Joyful APCM – Thank You! A huge thank you to everyone who came along or contributed in any way to our APCM on Tuesday evening. What a joyful time it was as we looked back with gratitude over the past year at St Nic’s, celebrating God’s abundant blessings poured out on our community in so many ways. A real highlight of the night was hearing from Jack and Lee, who shared their stories of their journey to St Nic’s and the incredible ways God has been at work in their lives. It was moving, inspiring, and a reminder that we all carry a story worth sharing. As St Paul writes in 2 Corinthians 3:2–3, our lives are like letters—written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God. Each testimony is a living witness to God’s grace. So, let’s keep telling our stories and encouraging one another!
On the Horizon – Building Work & Youth Leadership - If you missed the APCM, here’s a quick update: we’re about to kick off our next major building project, which involves scaffolding the entire church tower. Please bear with us during the works—and maybe say a quick prayer for the builders while you're at it! Also, exciting news: in the next few days our advert for a new Youth Leader will go live. Please pray that the right person is drawn to this role and that God gives us wisdom and clarity in the selection process. We’re trusting Him to bring the right leader aboard our ship!
Coffee, Cake & Compassion – £250 Raised for Brian House A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us for Thursday’s Coffee Morning in aid of Brian House. And a standing ovation to our brilliant bakers! With your help, we raised over £250 to support the vital work of providing care and respite for children with life-limiting illnesses.
Archbishop of Canterbury – Not Quite Breaking News - No, this isn't that kind of announcement—but couldn’t resist commenting on the ongoing drama. While the Catholic Church moved swiftly to elect Pope Leo XIV just 16 days after Pope Francis’s passing, we Anglicans are still navigating the murky waters of bureaucracy. Six months after Justin Welby’s resignation and four months since the position became vacant, we’ve yet to even finalize the 17-member Crown Nominations Commission. “Omnishambles” might just be the word of the week! (Okay, rant over—but come on, Church of England!)
Please also remember in your prayers: Martyn Westby, Brian Brown, Louise Gorley, Mark Price, Michael Carthy, Paul Sumner, Sandra Pratt, Michael, Chris Kelsall, Tracey Ashworth, Philip Wayman, Maureen Hardman, Robert and Harvey and Chris Cousins. We also remember the families of Dave Eggleton, Janice Porter and Kelly Beavers whose funerals are due to take place.
