Gift Day – A chance to support the growth and development of
Emmanuel
Emmanuel – God is Here
We gather for worship in different ways and at different
timesOn Sundays at 9.15am,10.30am and 7pm... and
also….
Midweek worship with space for Healing Prayers
Everyone Welcome
Monthly, Thursdays at 7.30pm
It’s great to be involved with other worship as well. Here
Wilthorpe Infants celebrate their Harvest Festival at Emmanuel.
But beyond worship Emmanuel is active in lots of different ways….
In caring for each other
In helping each other to grow in our faith
In serving the community around us
In fighting injustice
In seeking to make more disciples of Christ
Here’s our 2005 Holiday Club, “Landlubbers”
Sharing the story and love of Jesus with over 60
children
And our Holiday Club Service which was such a
success
“Roots” is the name of our thriving work with
children and young people on Sunday mornings.
Every Sunday morning our children and young people
learn more about Jesus’ love and how each of them
matters to God.
And here’s our new “Tuesday Club” where 5-11s are learning
all about the “Fruits of the Spirit.”
And our Brownies and Guides go from strength to strength as they
play, learn and raise money for charity.
And our Toddler Group & Little Fishes cater for 0-3s and their
parents. Lots of fun for everyone!
And Youth Alpha is helping over 20 teenagers to understand Christianity better.
We pray that they will come to faith, and grow in their faith.
Emmanuel Methodist Church Barnsley Circuit
Full Time Lay Minister with responsibility
for Children's and Youth Work An exciting opportunity to join our growing church and
lead our existing team in the further development of our ministry to children and young people
£19,053 pa + expenses
Initially 3 years with continuation subject to funding
And as our work with children and young people grows and develops,
so it needs more leadership. That’s why we’re advertising now to recruit a new Lay Minister to
head up the Children’s and Youth Work.
We also provide opportunities for the housebound to get together.
This year we had a tea followed by a short service which included
Communion.
Our Housegroup network continues to grow.
Housegroups are such a good way to make friends, care for one
another and grow in our faith.
See what they get up to!
There are other great opportunities to meet up and chat. Here’s our Tuesday Morning Coffee Morning.
And other social events too.
And such a great team of people who cater for everyone.
Food, glorious food!
Talking of which, now we’re a Fair Trade Church – seeking to
actively support efforts to ensure everyone in our world
gets a fair share.
And here’s some of our church who went to Mozambique in
September to help build 5 new houses.
And here’s Eileen who went to see children in Uganda – our A.F.R.I.C.A. project for 2005.
And our Coffee Morning has bought them a Cow
And here’s the Pearl of Africa Choir at Emmanuel just a few
days ago.
Last autumn we held our first Church Weekend. A great time of
fellowship and fun as we shared all about “Travelling On.”
Some of the keen ones enjoyed a bracing walk on the Saturday
afternoon!
And there’s so much more as well!
So, thank you for all the ways in which you are helping to develop the
Ministry of Emmanuel.
And let’s look forward with confidence to what God is going to do amongst us and with us in the
future.
Let’s all play our part in giving generously to ensure that all God’s
work is financed.
