Our new 'Teaching Café' style evening services are running on the fourth Sunday evening of each month (unless otherwise advertised) at 7.00 pm. The evening includes a light supper and a series of informal teaching sessions based around the course "A Bird's Eye View of the Old Testament", given by our minister Revd John Haley.
This page includes the full schedule of sessions for 2010 and downloadable notes from the course (PDF format, available in the week following each session).
Links are available to the follow the Bible passages online at Bible Gateway. Each reading is set to music on the evening, and the music used is provided just for interest, with a link to listen on YouTube.
