4:30pm “HOW DO I BECOME A CHRISTIAN”?  at PBC

How would you respond if someone said this to you? We will be  running a short, snappy course, where you will get the chance to explore ways to help people embark on the best journey there is.  There’ll come a time, whether at camp or in church, whether in youth or children’s ministry, or just as you relate with friends and peers, where you’ll want to know how to approach this dream scenario.

So join us on these three Sunday afternoons—7th, 14th and 21st May for an hour or so from 4.30pm…...so you can be more prepared. For more information please see Alan Leese or Bob Webb.

ANDY HAWTHORN - THE MESSAGE

"On 21st May 2006 I shall be leading The Message Team participating in the Great Manchester Run. By running 10k across the streets of Manchester we're hoping to raise a total of £50,000 to help fund the work of The Message, which is sharing the Gospel and offering hope to young people across Greater Manchester. Can you sponsor me and encourage others in your church to do the same? It would means such a lot if you could. 

Sponsor forms are available at the back of Church or pledge on-line

If you are visiting PBC, it is worth noting that car parking in Poynton can be difficult at times. You can park in a pay car park next door by the Late Shop at 50p for 2 hours (or £5 for 3 to 5 hours) or park free at the Civic Hall car park further up Park Lane - see map. As from the 6th February 06, the 24 hr pay car park is administered by Excel Parking who will issue parking fines for violations (worth being aware).
