EVENING BIBLE STUDY
In June we began an evening Bible Study, meeting in the Meeting Place Coffee Shop (soon to be rechristened 'Wesleys...' ) on the first and third Tuesdays in the month, at 7.30pm. We are joined by friends from Daw End and Aldridge churches, and are currently studying Paul's letter to the Philippians. We keep things relaxed and informal - do come if you can!
AFTERNOON BIBLE STUDY GROUP
After arriving here in September, I was excited to be asked if I would come along and take part or even lead in the above.
We meet fortnightly on a Tuesday afternoon at 2pm; our group consists of 12-14 members and at present we are following a study book on Mark's Gospel, starting right from the beginning of chapter 1 and continuing through to chapter 8. It is taking all of us on a journey of discovery as the disciples learn who Jesus really is and for ourselves that same journey that Jesus is King in our own lives.
We are a dedicated group being able to share and learn from one another about the Bible. A good time of fellowship is had by all.
Why don't you come along and join us sometime?

ORGAN FUND CONCERTS
The two concerts so far featuring the Junior Conservatoire strings with a variety of guests have been enjoyable and financially successful, with a small band of willing helpers.
The big challenge is on 6th November when Henry Sandon will be visiting us. Marilyn Bennett has suggested an afternoon tea, so we start at 4pm and end about 7pm, leaving time for people to visit bonfire parties, having eaten.
There will be some music from The New Moon and small ceramic items valued and talked about at Henry Sandon's discretion.

Organ Appeal Fund
At Central Hall, we are trying to raise £70,000 to rebuild our historic Nicholson & Lord
Organ, first installed in the 1920's. It was made in their Walsall factory, and is one of the few remaining Nicholson organs of its size & scope, and is probably one of the best organs remaining in the
Borough.
The organ now needs its first ever (!) full rebuild, and we will take the opportunity to extend its range and add record and playback facility - possible due to the electric action installed some years ago. However, such work doesn't come cheap, and we need to raise £70.000 to put this work in hand.
Central Hall has a proud history as a venue for organ recitals and concerts. and it is our hope to see this great instrument used to its full potential once again. If you would like to help us achieve our
goal, please send your donations to our Minister. John Davies at the above address - all donations are welcome, however great or small, and can be gift-aided. Thank you for your support.
The Meeting Place is open on Saturday mornings from 10.30 to 12.30 and on Fridays from 10.30 to 2pm
Comrades usually meet on Fridays at 2pm details from Mrs. Margo Taylor
