Healing on the Streets

Keighley Churches will be getting involved in an exciting new venture over the coming months called “Healing on the Streets” (HOTS). It involves having a team of Christians simply inviting people in the town centre for healing prayer in a gentle and organised manner. Many churches across the country are doing this with exciting results in terms of healings and salvations. Those interested in being involved will be asked to attend a training seminar in Leigh (Lancs.) on Friday 26 and Saturday 27 February (50 miles, 1hr 15 mins drive). Please contact Steve Smith if you would like to be involved. Visit www.out-there.org for more information on HOTS.

Weekend Away

Next Year’s Church Weekend Away is 17-19 September and will again be in Keswick. This is a week later than the past two years. So please put this date in the advanced dates section of your diary. Make sure you keep it free - and be ready to act promptly when booking forms come out.

Puppeteers Wanted

We have been performing with the puppets for several years now and have all enjoyed working together on this. However, due to other commitments the team has recently dwindled.
Being part of this team creates an opportunity to have fun and serve. It is a commitment, and practice is a must, but it is fun. We are looking for people to join the team and if anyone has the vision to lead the puppet team here is your opportunity.
If you are interested, or want more information, please speak to Jill Pettinger or Sue Whitlock.
