Our series of Lenten Studies begins this Tuesday evening, 3rd March. There will be four studies, which will be shared by our friends from Mount View. 

You will have been given information about the Bible Course Manna and Mercy that Rev Romeo Pedro will soon be running at Woodseats. Just to note the dates for your diaries – Tuesdays 7th, 14th and 21st April and 5th May, the time 7.30-9.00 pm, and the need to book a place (0114 2726561 or by email admin@sheffieldcircuit.org.uk) if you wish to attend. 

Sunday 8 March 10.45 Mount View: Saints Alive! at Family Service.

Glyn begins a week of Birthdays, celebrating on Sunday, followed on Thursday by Ruth and Roy Hickson’s son, Daniel, and on Friday by Pat Roebuck. Congratulations from all your friends at Woodseats Church; we hope you enjoy your Birthdays.

A gentle reminder that if you stay for coffee after the service on a Sunday, please could you leave via the church door on Mitchell Road and not the brown door near the Large Hall. Although the church door may be locked, you can get out by pushing the crash bar and slamming the door behind you.

We are still accepting donations to the  Grace Food Bank - www.gracefoodbanksheffield.org.uk - via the ramp door on Mitchell Road on Wednesdays from 10.00 am – 11.30am.

Please continue to support this essential service If you are able to help, please let Pat or Tony know.

The Foodbank has requested that as well as the donation of toiletries, they are trying to collect more items that don't need cooking. So, gifts like tinned fruit, ham, corned beef, tuna etc. are especially welcome.
