Hunger Lunch to support Christian Aid

Occurring
for 1 hour, 30 mins
Venue
Holy Trinity
Address
Rosemary Lane Formby, L37 3HA, United Kingdom

Christian Aid Week 11th-17th May
The days of door-to-door collections in Christian Aid week have now gone but it remains essential that we help to support those struggling in our world. The current global financial issues which have seen many countries, including ours, cut their Aid giving, along with the ongoing ecological crisis which often affects those least able to cope with the changes, alongside wars and disasters mean the need is great. There will be envelopes in both churches so please consider donating and filling in the Gift Aid section if you are able.

We are having ‘Hunger Lunch’ on Sunday 18th May at 12.15pm in the Parish Hall to raise funds for Christian Aid. It will be a simple soup and bread lunch for which you are invited to donate, maybe consider giving what you would have paid for your usual Sunday lunch. If you would like to know more about the campaign this year, please see Christian Aid’s website - caweek.org There is also a link there to make a direct donation if you so wish.

Recruiting a new vicar
We are also using this event as an opportunity for us, as a church, to discuss, pray and put forward our thoughts about what the next chapter of Holy Trinity and St Michael and All Angels will look like. What areas we would like to see develop and the gifts and skills which will be needed by our new incumbent to lead us all to be a part that new future.

A sign up sheet is at the back of Church, so we have an idea of numbers.

Holy Trinity

Holy Trinity church In the Diocese of Liverpool, where everyone is invited, included and important.

Holy Trinity Church, Rosemary Lane was established over 100 years ago, to meet the needs of a growing village community. Since then the village has become a small town but nobody would ever consider describing it as anything but a village.

It is not surprising therefore that many refer to our Rosemary Lane buildings as – ‘The Church in the Village’

Actually our premises are far more than just a church building. We have a large Parish Hall which is used widely by the community and a smaller Hall, called ‘The Workshop’, which is used by our thriving Uniformed Organizations and many other community groups. On a Saturday morning it is a drop in café, where many enjoy a bacon bap, a drink and a natter.

We provide a variety of worship at Rosemary Lane, designed to meet the different needs of our members. Our 8.30am service is a conventional Holy Communion service following Common Worship with two hymns. At 10.00am we hold a contemporary service focused on families and then at 11.15am a conventional service of Morning Worship.

I am sure that you will find a service that will suit your personal needs and can assure you of a warm welcome, whether as a visitor, or as someone who is looking for a church community, where they might wish to become regularly involved. Either way, we look forward to welcoming you to Holy Trinity.
