To know Christ and to share Christ

Spring 2014
Welcome to Grace Church Highlands!
Then Jesus said to his disciples, The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field. (Matthew 9v37-38)
We begin 2014 celebrating our 7th Birthday with the Bishop of London. We look back with great thanks to God for His faithfulness in leading, sustaining and growing us as a church family. We also look forward in eager expectation to what the future may hold and how we can continue to be a faithful and growing church in this new season of life for us. As we look forward we will continue to offer opportunities for friends to Uncover Jesus in Lukes Gospel as we seek to know Christ and to share Christ. It is a great pleasure and privilege to welcome newcomers into the church family. We hope and pray that you will find us to be a welcoming church where you can both belong and believe. There will be a Newcomers Lunch on 2nd February where you can find out more about Grace Church Highlands. Most of the key Spring events are described here. Please contact me if you want to know more. Yours in Christ Revd Andy Wadsworth 2 Firs Lane, Winchmore Hill, London N21 2HU 020 8350 6946 andy-wadsworth@btconnect.com www.gracechurchhighlands.co.uk
