New Directions in Worship

Having heard much about Pilot involvement in worship at the URC Synod in early March, it seemed appropriate to invite our Pilots and their parents to come along and join us in morning worship on 15th March. Allen Morton came to our Pilot evening the previous week, and suggested that we plan the service around Noah's Ark, as that was our Bible story for that particular evening. We made the Ark and placed it in the Church ready for the service, and we learnt some Noah songs to sing on the day. Sylvia and Henry joined us for the service, along with several Pilots and their parents

 

After the service everyone went outside for a photograph by the newly erected Pilot plaque. Hopefully we will see more services like this in the future.

 

Autumn Term 2010

We will be meeting on Mondays from 6 - 7.30 pm:

Sept 6th & 20th, Oct 4th &18th, Nov 1st, 15th & 29th, Dec 6th & 20th.

 

Henry Playle will be working with the older members and Lyndsey Barnes plus other Pilot Officers on a rota system, will be looking after the junior members. Henry is the Youth Co-ordinator for the Eastern Province of the URC, and is no stranger to our Pilot Company as he has been working with us in a supportive capacity for a number of years. As Valerie has to undergo two shoulder operations, she and Peter will be unable to organise or lead the Pilot Sessions this term, but will be attending meetings whenever possible. At Henry's suggestion, he is stepping in to keep the group together at this time. We have a willing and capable team of officers and helpers who will be supporting Henry during the coming months.
