Time: 7:30pm - 12:00am Thursday, January 1
Location: St Dunstan's Church
Summary: Find where you fit
Description:

The event, a first, is entitled 'Find where you Fit' and we are inviting all the Christians in Woking to attend. People attending will have the opportunity to do just that, in terms of which agency is the best fit for them and how best they can help - prayer, funding, volunteering. The Christian agencies do much-needed, amazing, work in Woking which most individual churches simply couldn't do alone and they need our ongoing support. We are excited about the potential for helping believers to find where they fit in fulfilling God's great desire to show His love to Woking.


The event will follow a proven 'speed dating' type format that we have developed. At the beginning of the evening, with guests seated, each agency will have 60 seconds, and no more, to say their piece. After this guests will be able to follow up with whichever Christian agencies most excite them, by visiting their stands.


As well as the practical benefits of connecting people with agencies, this eventwill be a celebration of what God is doing in Woking through the agencies and will help your church members see the bigger picture. I can almost guarantee that they will leave encouraged, uplifted and inspired. The sort of things people say who have come to similar events is, "I never knew all this was going on in Woking, It is amazing" And if this means that they then return to their area of service fired up, then that will be a very good outcome.

Saturday, November 4
Time: 9:00am - 12:00am Thursday, January 1
Location: St John's,Woking
Summary: Changing a Generation
Description:

A morning with Tim Hawkins. 

Leading Children's and Young people's work can be tough. Even when everything has gone wrong on Sunday morning why is it worth continuing with Sunday school or youth group? We’ve asked Tim to encourage us in our work with Children and Young people to look at the picture and remember why it’s worth it.

Tim Hawkins has been a youth pastor for over 40 years and brings a wonderful wealth of experience and unique style of presentation that will both encourage and challenge us to be thinking biblically and prayerfully about our ministry to children and young people.

 

Thursday, November 9
Time: 7:30pm - 12:00am Thursday, January 1
Location: St John's, Woking
Summary: A Monk's Tale
Description:

This show is about Martin Luther. And it's for people who aren't quite sure which Luther we're talking about. With a feeling of Horrible Histories and Monty Python, A Monk's Tale helps the audience understand the unfamiliar medieval mindset, and exactly what Luther was trying to do with his 95 Theses, which sparked one of the most significant movements in history: the Reformation.

The show is light, accessible and funny, using sketches, and songs to explain the specifics of the story: the indulgences, purgatory, the sacraments and theological disputes of the period. As the play unfolds, the audience will be informed and challenged as well as entertained and amused.

Suitable for all ages and all faiths, as well as skeptics, the fast-paced hour-long show also covers the Wycliffe and the Lollards, popes, princes and the seismic changes brought on by the internet of its time, the Printing Press.

Cost £10 for adults, £5 for children.
