WEDNESDAY 26TH AT 1.00PM - FRIDAY 28TH FEBRUARY AT 12:30PM BIBLICAL HEBREW - INSIGHTS FOR BEGINNERS Are you interested in learning fresh skills for exploring the Bible yourself? Do you enjoy engaging with the text of the Bible in conversation with others? Have you heard a little about the Hebrew language and worldview, and would you be interested to appreciate it in a bit more depth? Would you love to be energised by the inspired literature of the Bible, and to discover how God has woven the text to entwine plain narrative with prophetic revelation? Well, this Biblefresh course is for you! The course is made up of 10 interactive tutorials. No previous knowledge of Hebrew is required, just a passion for the Bible. Participants will leave with a sense of excitement over having personally engaged deeply in the text of scripture. The sessions will begin at the Beginning, and focus on the first chapter of the Bible. When you think about it, if the Bible is the inspired message from God, then the first chapter must surely be foundational in so many ways! Paul Hocking will facilitate the sessions. Paul has many years’ experience as a Bible teacher, Pastor, consultant for churches and charities, and Hebrew scholar. The course is designed for those with no knowledge of Hebrew, and all materials will be provided for you! This is the first of two date options, mid-week (Wednesday to Friday) or weekend (Friday evening to Sunday) - See below. Price per person: £136 for standard room; £156 for en-suite room.

Forming a team to serve your local primary school Those of you who know me will know that I carry a passion for work in schools. One
of the ways this has been expressed has been in Christmas puppet
roadshows which we have run in North Wales for the last 15 years. Last year, members of our team were keen to explore the question “what can we do the rest of the year?” One answer is to take regular primary school assemblies using the excellent “Open the book/Agor y llyfr” material. This
is a great resource which is simple to use for even the most
inexperienced of teams and is available in both English and Welsh. (* See below for a quick quote from the web site or check it out in full at www.openthebook.net) Already, there are over 20 teams using this material successfully across North Wales. If
you would be interested in forming or joining a team to offer this to
your local schools or if you have any questions, please do be in touch. Please DO forward this to anyone else who may be interested.Don’t hesitate to be in touch if I can be of help. Contact: Andy Hughes (Urban Saints Wales Director) 01678 530347 / 07968 826401
* Have
you ever thought that children in schools might be missing out on what
the Bible has to show them? They could go through their entire school
life without ever learning about Adam and Eve, Noah, David, Jonah ... or
even the life of Jesus and the stories of the New Testament.OPEN THE BOOK offers
a programme of themed and dramatised Bible stories at no charge to the
schools. Each session is around 10 minutes long and fits comfortably
into assembly times. Our
teams of volunteer storytellers use drama, mime, props, costume - even
the children and staff themselves - to present Bible stories in ways
that are lively, engaging, informative ... and great fun for everyone
involved! So now, thanks to OPEN THE BOOK, children
in schools will have the opportunity during Collective Worship to
discover all the wonder and wisdom that the Bible can offer!

eyes... and hopefully take you to your knees... and cause you to rise up
and take action.
Just in case you miss this on our " Crucial Issues" page, please take a moment or two to look at it, and consider...
Why is it called a "human embryo"?
Because it's a HUMAN! If it wasn't aborted, it would grow to be like you and me!
And a human embryo is a person, a tiny baby, not an "embryo-like entity," a "ball of cells," a "product of conception," a "blob of tissue".. and to refer to it as a fertilised ovum, a zygote, a fetus covers up the truth...
It's a new living genetically unique single-cell human organism, human zygote, human embryo, human individual, human being... it's a human baby!

VACANCIES FOR SUPPORT WORKERS AT PROSPECTS
Prospects is now recruiting for support workers to enable people with
learning disabilities to live in their own homes and be part of their
local communities within the County of Conwy. Full time, part time and relief hours are available.
Prospects is a Christian charity helping to
transform the lives of people with learning disabilities by breaking down the
barriers that limit individual choice. As an employer, we also recognise and
value true potential - offering you the chance to make a real and lasting
impact in what is a supportive, dynamic and empowering working environment. We
seek people who are fully committed to our Christian beliefs and who will help
us deliver a distinctly Christian service which will include praying for, and
with, our community.
There are many ways in which you’ll be
helping people with a learning disability lead a more active fulfilling life.
Some involve simple, everyday tasks, such as a trip to the shops. Some are fun,
like an outing to the cinema. Some can be far more demanding such as teaching
living skills and providing spiritual support. But all are highly rewarding and
come with a sense of job satisfaction that would be hard to find anywhere else.
Regular prayer for those we support is an
important part of the role too. Which is why, as well as being a good listener
and confident communicator, you will understand our values. You’ll also need
plenty of initiative and patience, and an approach that’s organised, team
focused and very flexible. If you don’t already have a QCF Diploma NVQ2 in Health
& Social Care, you must be willing to study for this key qualification.

SUSTAINABLE ENERGY GUIDE FOR OLDER CHURCH AND CHAPEL BUILDINGS IN WALES
As
part of an EU funded project that I am working on, I have formulated
the guide on the options for sustainable energy solutions for poorly
insulated and intermittently occupied older church and chapel buildings.
It comes about following surveys of several church and chapel
buildings over the last few months and have been struck by a "now"
opportunity for many of those that were built or refurbished in the 19th
century. The model for the area where the pews are situated is that
this was a suspended timber floor. These are very often drawing to the
end of their life and in need of replacement. This represents a once in
a century opportunity to lay an underfloor heating system (which then
allows a couple of lower carbon options to be installed) and keep
people's feet warm! These low carbon options will soon be eligible for
the Renewable Heat Incentive.
The Guide is attached at the foot of this page.
Please
feel free to circulate this to as many Church and Chapel building
custodians as possible, and please inform the contact below of the
approximate number that you have forwarded it to.

OIC (Organisation of Islamic Cooperation) STATES CALL FOR RELIGIOUS TOLERANCE IN EUROPE - YET PERSECUTE CHRISTIANS
While governments in the West have granted full equality and
religious freedom to Muslims, in Muslim-majority states growing
hostility and intolerance is being shown towards Christians. This is
expressed in increased restrictions on their religious freedom and often
in acts of violence. The OIC's appeal for equality and tolerance in the
West would carry more weight if its members also promoted these values
at home.

ONLY SURVIVING ALBUM
This is the story of a Hungarian Jewish woman who survived Auschwitz and
found a coat belonging to a guard which she took to shield her from the
cold immediately after her liberation. In the pocket of this coat she
found a photo album. It contained pictures of what went on in this
extermination camp. Imagine her reaction when she saw a picture of
herself coming off of the train as well pictures of her family who were
already murdered. This album at Yad Vashem in Jerusalem was
donated by this woman in 1980 and will forever be displayed there.
When you have 5 minutes of peace and quiet in front of your computer,
watch it and consider passing it around to people that you know so they
can share it and know about it. It is truly moving and important.
