Embrace the Middle East (formerly Bible Lands) have produced a document ‘We Choose Abundant Life’ setting out the key perspectives of the remaining Christian church in the Holy Land. One of the main themes is co-operation between the main denominations and a Spirit – led witness across the region. This document can be downloaded from the Embrace website. Also a summary is at the back of St Ed’s church. This is such an important issue for our time, particularly as we consider church unity.

The Norwich passion Play is happening on Saturday 16th April in Norwich – a collaboration across the city from many churches. More details are at the back of church, including how to volunteer!

Bibles for the Junior School We try and donate a Bible to each Year 3 pupil at the Junior School each year. Each Bible costs £5.50 for 120 pupils. Also the Year 5’s missed out because of the Pandemic. We are therefore hoping to present Bibles to them this Easter also. If you would like to contribute, please pass your donation to a Churchwarden.

Christian Aid Week is 15th to 21st May . We have adopted new envelopes that no longer involve collecting them, but delivering them across Taverham and inviting people to return them (much less hard work and awkwardness!!). If you are interested in delivering these, please let Paul Scarff or Rev Paul know.
