As is customary, the Churches of Oadby are working together during Lent to raise money for Christian Aid through the "Lent Lunches." They take place each Saturday in a different church and this week, they came to St Paul's. A light lunch of (delicious) soup, bread rolls, butter and cheese with tea or coffee were provided and people gave a contribution to Christian Aid. Over £140 was raised which will help projects overseas that benefit the most needy in society, in the name of Christ.
It was also a great time of friendship and chatter. Sorry if you missed out!
Come to the BaptistChurch at 12.0 mid-day on Saturday, next week, for the next one.
St Paul's is a vibrant church in the open-evangelical tradition. It is part of the Church of England and its Parish serves Oadby, east of the A6. It is also part of a larger group of parishes, called a "Benefice," which includes St Peter's Oadby, Great Glen and Burton Overy with Carlton Curlieu. We seek to be a church for all ages, backgrounds, cultures and nationalities, that is growing and following Jesus. We have a congregation of about one hundred at our main Sunday service and are always pleased to welcome enquirers and visitors.
