A Prayer you may like to use as you prepare for worship
Heavenly Father, As we see around us the many threats to families, we pray. You are the source of love and you
join us together in the miracle of friendship, marriage and family life. Help us to be faithful, and understanding
in all our relationships. Save and protect us from the pressures of the world and strong enough to face the
difficult times. Amen
Please remember in your prayers
our elderly and housebound’

Joseph and his Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat
The drama group at Timperley are planning a performance of Joseph on the afternoon of
Sunday 10th May. We are hoping to welcome children from Altrincham, Bowdon Vale, The Vine
& Timperley to join us and to take the main parts. Also, it is going to be a sing-a-long event, so
we intend the chorus to be mostly adults, who would like to join us. Rehearsals are on
Thursdays from 6.30pm to 7.30pm. (If you cannot commit to practices, then we will be
encouraging audience participation on the day.)
If you are tempted, please turn up to any rehearsal. If you have any queries, speak to Jacky at
Timperley - 07714260053 or Liz Harwood at Altrincham - 07939931017. We would love you
to join us!
Annual PAT Testing
Any electrical equipment privately/organisation owned that is used on Church premises must be PAT tested for insurance
purposes. (This test only confirms that an appliance is safe on the day the test is done. Each person bringing electrical
equipment onto church premises is responsible for the safety of that equipment. Plugs, wiring and cables should always be
safe before use).
All Pat Testing for Church electrical equipment has been bought into line to be tested in February each year so that no item is
subsequently missed. This year we have arranged to Pat Test all electrical equipment on the following dates:
Monday February 16th, Tuesday February 17th, & Wednesday February 18th
If you have any electrical equipment used on the church premises, please contact the church office
([email protected] or 0161 928 0022) or bring your electrical equipment to Altrincham Methodist Church on any of
the days listed above before 12.00noon with completed slip below.
