Easter Appeal for A Rocha UK—Caring for God’s Earth

BHC Easter Appeal

Instead of a Mission Sunday this Easter, this year we are running a “Mission Month” during Lent. Our Easter Appeal is in aid of our mission partner charity, A Rocha UK. A Rocha UK is a Christian charity campaigning for the environment through number of activities. Please take time to read the Outward Giving Update which explains A Rocha UK’s activities and follow the instructions to make a donation. (Copies of the OG Update can be found at the back of Busbridge Church). To support the Easter Appeal, there is an eco thread to the Lent challenges which are being sent out on weekdays by text. Catch up on this week’s challenges (see below).

‘Meeting the world right here in Surrey!’ - Nexus Talk, Thursday 8th April

Louise Baumberg will talk to us on ‘Meeting the world right here in Surrey!’ Louise has worked with refugees, mainly young people who have arrived alone, as a foster carer and, more recently, as a caseworker with Big Leaf Foundation. This charity supports displaced young people in Surrey.

Do come along and find out about the challenges and achievements of this diverse group of individuals living in our community. It may give you a fresh perspective on life, and all the things we take for granted.

This will be a free Zoom meeting starting at 8.00pm, but you’re invited to join from 7.45pm so you can chat with others. We look forward to seeing you!

Road Steward needed for The Bridge magazine for Shackstead Lane (numbers 2-26 only) and Busbridge Lane (numbers 106-146, 111-125)

The Bridge magazine would like to thank Mary Keech for her time as a Road Steward for the upper part of Shackstead Lane. We're very grateful to her for all her years of service. We're now looking for someone who might be able to take over her patch of 14 houses (the Godalming College end of Shackstead Lane).

We're also looking for a new Road Steward who, 6 times a year, would be willing to deliver magazines to 32 houses in Busbridge Lane (numbers 106-146 & 111-125). If you live in, or close to this stretch, (or maybe know someone who does and might be willing to take on the role) please contact the editor, Cathy, at editor.atthebridge@gmail.com. We'd be delighted and most appreciative to hear from you.

More Digi-disciples needed!

News from our mission partner: The Cellar Camino Café - fundraising for a new coffee machine and till for lift off after lockdown!
The Cellar is on a fundraising drive to help lift off after lockdown. The move to the new premises next to the Borough Hall in July has been really positive, and The Cellar has done well on spiritual capital from staying open during the winter lockdowns. The café has had a good number of people for takeaways, hot meals on food vouchers put at the community food store, and much supportive pastoral work and street witness with prayer. With the new bigger and better venue, the management team want to buy a good and efficient coffee machine, and till to improve security and speed of use. Can you help? What to do next :-

Contact Chris Jagger for more information 01483 415334 | chrisjagger42@gmail.com Donate via our website www.thecellarcafe.co.uk or use the web site to set up a standing order to support the ongoing work of the Cellar.
