stop people from coming out to what promised to be the start of something good.

A two course meal, not “snack” was served  before we started..

The precedence has been set and we have great expectations. This was just a taste of what is to come.

Please come out with your questions and be ready to have a good time.

Can’t give away too much now. Come and see for yourself, you will not be disappointed.

Rita and Shaky tucking into their lunch!

After much time and effort by all who were involved, the launch of the new Luncheon Club became a reality on Wednesday 21st January, 2009.

The club has been the brainchild of Pastor Willins, who along with the hard work of a number of dedicated church members, turned this dream into a reality, for the glory of Jesus.

There have been a number of people of influence outside the church who have also shown their support for the project, including former mayor of Southampton, Councillor John Slade, and Auran Sood who works for Southampton Voluntary Services. New Testament Church of God, Southampton, recognise the support they have shown, and would like to publicly express their gratitude. Also thanks is given to Help the Aged for their financial

contribution, which will be used to provide further comfortable seating for those who visit the club.

A special thanks is due to the members of the congregation, who were prepared to share in this vision by supporting it with their own time and effort, and without whom, the project would not be possible. The committe are as follows:

• Chair – Zelly Adams
• Assistant Chair – Lyra Edwards
• Secretary – Simon Williams
• Treasurer – Lorraine Gray
• Asst. Secretary – Merle Willins
• Fund Raiser – Jenny Ferdinand
• Activities – Joan Ford
• Asst. Activities – Norma Rodgers
• Gen. Support – Joseph Newton
• Gen. Support – Tony Musson

There were others too who helped with various things including cooking, cleaning, greeting people etc., and generally making the whole event both special and highly enjoyable for everyone involved. For future information please note that Cynthia Musson has begun printing a monthly newsletter called the “Priory Voice”, which outlines everything that’s been happening at the club.

We would like to ask for your prayerful support of this ministry, as we strive to display the love of Jesus Christ to those within the community that surrounds us. Also why not drop in yourself if you’re free? You would be hard pushed to find better value for money, or more enjoyable company elsewhere!

Finally, if you have the time available and would like to help out in a practical way, please contact the church using the contact details to the right. Your offer of help would be most appreciated.

In light of the success of the previous Gospel concert in October, another concert will be held at St. Deny’s Parish Church in the run up to Christmas.

Cynthia Musson, who is a valuable member of the worship team at New Testament Church of God, will be accompanied by “Sound Advice” for the evening. There will also be a special guest appearance of renowned gospel singer, Michael Bolt.

The concert will be held at: St. Deny’s Parish Church, St. Deny’s Road, Southampton. SO17 2ND, at 7.30pm on Saturday 13th December. Tickets will be available at a cost of £5 each, and can be purchased from St. Deny’s Church, or on the door if tickets remain. Ring 02380 671757 for details.
