If you have been worshipping at St Mark's for at least six months you qualify for membership. Prospective members are encouraged to attend a meeting after tea next Sunday, the 31st of January, to hear what joining our congregation entails.
Those of you who are already members of other Presbyterian churches, have for example to provide proof of that membership and the process is straight foreword. If on the other hand you have not been baptised baptismal classes will be arranged. The meetings will continue on a monthly basis, so that there is a forum to welcome new members into our community. We want you all to feel at home with us. Indeed this was the exact sentiment expressed by our Session Clerk Elizabeth White after she has read the notices today.
The Women's Association, who meet on Tuesday, are also on the lookout for new members. A "flyer" was handed out at the door today and more are available in the church office, for those who are interested in assisting with the WA/s vital work in service of the Lord.
And you can get hold of Giyani or Solomon if you are a man, looking a place for fellowship and service in the church. Joefred, Addai (this is surname first), who has travelled south all the way from Ghana, bumped into Giyani at the door on Sunday and so promptly got his name onto the Men for the Master's SMS list and a job as an assistant on door duty as well. Welcome Addai. And would you believe he bumped into a lady from his home district back home in the course of handing out hymn books. This is a small world indeed.
