It was a lovely gathering today at Costa. Our guest was Rev'd Kathryn Darby, who talked about trauma, healing and transformation. She sang a couple of songs too! 😊🎶🙏🍵

Gathering with Communion on 9th January 2022

 This was our very first Holy Communion gathering, which was very special and meaningful. There was a table-top discussion... people were asked. "What promises have you made and what does commitment mean to you?" Annie & Trevor were interviewed and gave their opinions on this subject of 'commitment'. Bill led the main prayers and Communion was led by Rev'd Ian 🙏🎵🎶🍞🍷✟

Marcus P gave a fine performance on the keyboard

Trevor filmed some the gathering for Facebook 'Live'

Deacon Sue prepared the cups for Communion

Carol Service Gathering on 12th December 2021

Before the gathering, Rev'd Ian led a prayer walk around the Gallagher Retail Park. The get-together was  really lovely as we sang carols, watched a nativity cartoon video and chatted about what we wanted for Christmas. Deacon Sue was 'in conversation' with a CSS regular attendee, Faith. 😊🙏🎵🎶

Rev'd Ian led us in prayer

Sandra Godley at Costa on 28th November 2021

It was a good turnout (over 40) at our Costa gathering yesterday, with our special guest, BBC Coventry & Warwickshire Radio (CWR) presenter, Sandra Godley. She shared her faith journey and sang her own song, "My Darling", dedicated to her aunt, who was lost to Covid. You can see a recording of Sandra's interview and song by clicking here or there is a link on the right-hand side of this blog.

Here are some photos taken yesterday. More can be seen by clicking on the Photo Gallery on the right.

Gathering at Costa on 14th November 2021

 There were fewer attendees at our Remembrance Sunday gathering on 14th November, but we think this was due to so many people having coughs and colds! However, we had a lovely gathering and our Superintendent Minister, Rev Dr Marcus Torchon, had a chat with Pastor Trevor about the meaning of Remembrance.

Bill Holdforth led the prayers with his wife Helen - as usual in a very creative way

Our next Costa gathering will be on 28th November at 4.15pm.
