CHRISTMAS
SERVICE FOR THE BEREAVED
-
At 3.00pm
at Poynton Methodist Church there will be a service for anyone who may
find Christmas difficult because of bereavement or any other loss. This
year, you are invited to bring something with you, (if you wish to do so)
to remind you of your loved one—something that will evoke a happy
memory. There will also be an
opportunity to light a candle in their memory, again only if you wish. The
aim is to remember and to offer Christmas hope and love.

thanks to Bob Skirrow for organising a great walk around Bollington in the
crisp March sunshine-fabulous views from ‘White Nancy’ at the summit!
Next walk is further afield into the Peak District near Hathersage on

Vanessa Standing or David Henderson if you’re interested, or ask
us about future walks-usually the second Saturday of the month. Kinder

The
death of Stephen
Oake on the 12th January has been a devastating shock to both his
family & friends at Poynton Baptist Church and the wider community. Steve
was a much loved and valued member of the church, as are his wife and
children. He was a man of faith and integrity, which was reflected in the
breadth of his church activities, as well as in his job as a police
officer. He was also a devoted family man.
We are praying that the faith that Steve was so
committed to, will be a comfort to all those shocked by this tragedy.
