The Record - Price increase:
Some of you may have noticed that the price of the denomination's magazine The Record has increased from £1.50 to £2.00 per copy.  This is the first increase in several years but the main reason is due to several more articles being added to each issue.

Youth Camps – Thanksgiving Prayer Points:
Give thanks to the Lord for his goodness for drawing 348 young people, the highest number for 10 years, to hear the good news of the Gospel at camp this summer

Give thanks for the commitment, dedication and enthusiasm of
the 108 camp leaders who gave sacrificially of their time

Give thanks for all the cooks, drivers, parents and other volunteers

Pray for all the seeds sown at the camps- that they would take root, grow and that there would be a fruitful harvest

Pray for the future of Free Church Youth Camps

Your Voice in the Church Survey
During the month of October, the Free Church is conducting a denomination-wide survey about communications. The survey is for absolutely everyone who attends or has connections to a Free Church congregation- not just members.

The survey can be completed online via the following link on the Free Church website - www.freechurch.org

Alternatively, hard copies are available for people to complete and return.  Please do take this opportunity to help improve communications in the Free Church by providing your feedback through the survey.  As a church, we want to hear your voice.
