NEWS FROM THE COMMUNITY ACTION GROUP

“We’ve been exploring additional ways to demonstrate God’s love in the community and there appears to be a real local need for people to be ‘befriended.’ With help from the organisation ‘Faithworks’ we have been looking at how to respond; the result is through what we will be calling ‘Dorchester Friends in Deed’ more information will follow over the next few weeks”

Further details from Glenda G, Jon N. or Eve B.C.

A Request from CARE to pray this week for:
SHARING OUR HOMES

" Gracious Lord, thank You for bringing us into Your kingdom and welcoming us as Your children. Please help us to exercise the gift of hospitality, to those who need it and give us wisdom to recognise if this is sometimes not appropriate. May many local churches develop programmes to minister to those most in need. In Jesus name,
Amen. "
( This prayer has been provided by CARE – www.care.org.uk )
