Morning Prayer
Did you know that All Saints have a regular online service of Morning Prayer on Monday and Friday mornings?
Starting at 8am for around 30 minutes, this is a great way to begin your day.
We use the Common Worship service format (shared by Anglican Christians around the world!), focussing on God’s will for our lives, praying for the congregation and the parish of All Saints Childwall.
In 2 Chronicles 7:14 it says “if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”
Why not join us? It is a great way to connect with other members of the congregation, and participate in life of the church through fellowship and prayer.

Gas & Electricity – new fixed contract for church and hall
As a PCC we have agreed a new fixed contract for our gas & electricity.
The additional total cost for this year will £7552 more than we are currently paying. This is a significant increase and we do not want this to have a
negative impact on the current ministry of All Saints Childwall.
Thank you so much to all of you that have given £50 towards the increased energy costs.
We have received over 75 gifts so far.
Please prayerfully consider if you can join us and give an additional amount.
Any amount towards the increased cost of our energy bill will obviously be very welcome.
If you are a tax payer we are able to claim the tax back which will increase the value of your gift. Please see the stewardship table at the back of church for further information.
Thank you – PCC of All Saints Childwall
All Saints’ Prayer Partners Scheme
All Saints church has been running a Prayer Partner Scheme for the last 35-40
years, in which Prayer Partners provide prayer support for people and groups ministering in the life of the church. After changes of personnel in recent times the scheme needs updating. Sue Watterson has been the coordinator for 14 years, but feels it is time to hand over to somebody else, who can provide fresh ideas and energy. David Holland has volunteered to take over.
Invitation
If you have been in the church for some time or have only recently joined and can see this as something you would like to do, please contact David Holland. The idea is that the Prayer Partners will keep in touch with the person or group they are praying for. How regularly you offer prayer will be up to you. Existing Prayer Partners will be asked to affirm their continuing commitment.
For further information contact: David Holland
