Small Groups 

A key part of our faith journey is meeting together in small, mid week groups. These groups give us a chance to grow in faith and friendship. In small groups we can encourage and support each other. There is a wide variety of groups and they meet across the West Grantham area so please join the group that you think will suit you!

Sunday 30th June is a 5th Sunday and it's our annual West Grantham Group of Villages Big Get Together! This is a chance for the whole group to worship and eat together. On this Sunday there will be one service at All Saint's in Barrowby and then a meal afterwards (details to follow).

Deep Delve

June also sees us depart from the lectionary for our Sunday scripture readings through June, July and August and delve into the Book of Romans. The writer J. I. Packer said about Romans: “All roads in the Bible lead to Romans, and all views afforded by the Bible are seen most clearly from Romans, and when the message of Romans gets into a person's heart there is no telling what may happen.”
So this a book well worth delving into, there are some challenges but I pray that God will guide us through to a deeper faith.
We will also be giving people the chance to discuss the book in small groups so please speak to a Church warden who can put you in touch with small group leaders if you are not already part of a small group.
