Sunday
What a joy-filled 10:30am service yesterday as we celebrated three baptisms for All Saints Day!  It was fantastic to celebrate with the candidates and their friends and family.

This Sunday, we will be observing Remembrance Sunday and will have a two minutes silence at 11am. We will also be continuing our Challenging Lifestyles series and looking, rather aptly, at ‘How to Love Your Enemies’.

Prayer Gathering
You are all warmly invited to join us at our monthly Prayer Gathering this Tuesday 5th November at 8pm for an hour. The Tuesday Connect Group will be leading us in prayer. Prayer meetings like this one and Morning Prayer are the engine rooms of all we do at St. Stephen’s and we would love to see you there.

Pledge Packs
Thank you to all those who have already returned their completed Pledge Pack – if you are yet to do so can you please bring it to church by next Sunday at the latest.  And if you have not yet looked at our new Direct Debit option, through the Parish Giving Scheme, do click here

Christmas Fair
We have a fantastic event coming up to bring us all together and to raise money for a good cause – our annual and popular Christmas Fair is on Saturday, 30th November 10.30am-2.00pm in aid of the Ealing CAP (Christians Against Poverty).  We still need lots of help – if you can help or donate please use this link or see the stall on Sunday.

God bless and have a great week!
