REFRESHMENTS are served after services in the Community Room.
INDUCTION LOOP St George’s is fitted with an induction loop; please speak to a Steward for assistance.

Please pray for the following camps taking place over
the next few weeks of the Summer holidays.
Ripon: Pray for Chris Balding, Fraser Raitt, Kate Wright, Mel Scott, Rachel Sandbach, Ruth Zealey and Richard and Rachael Fox as they lead 11-18 year olds. That community would be developed and that Jesus would break in. Morfa Bay: Pray for Ben Walton, Will Talbot and Rob & V White as they lead 120 10-16 year olds. For safety, good weather and strengthened relationships with God. New Wine: Pray for all the St George’s staff and congregation who are serving at New Wine. That God would bless this time away together and equip all those on various teams. Treginnis: Pray for Louise Mann, Tim Clarke and the Swales Family as they lead 8-11 year olds. Confidence for a new young leader from Kidz Klub, and that the kids get to experience God’s love in a big way. Ingestre: Pray for Emily Holden as she leads 11-14 year olds. That God would be glorified throughout the week.

6-9.30pm, Tue 22 Oct, Living Hope Church, LS9 8HE This is an annual networking event for Christians from different backgrounds, cultures and postcodes, with a focus on seeing Leeds transformed. There are stalls profiling Christian social action initiatives from across the city. It is an excellent way to find out about what is already going on around Leeds.
Here at St George’s we want to be a church who seek to Share Life and Love Leeds. As part of this, when people come through our doors we want to them to be greeted with friendly faces, relaxed and able to meet with God. In September there will be lots of new people settling into St George’s, and a team of friendly people is essential in making those initial connections. We need people from a range of different backgrounds and Networks, who can simply chat to people and help them to feel at home. If you may be able to help, please contact Lisa.
