Dear Worshippers, Friends and Patrons of St. Clement’s,
Do join us for worship this coming Sunday..
Sunday 12th August starting at 11.00 – Sung Eucharist for The Eleventh Sunday after Trinity
The Gospel reading is John 6. 35, 41-51 which focuses on Jesus as the center of faith to which God the Father draws people. The supporting readings are 2 Samuel 18. 5-9, 15, 31-33 which is the story of conflict between David and his son Absalom, Absalom was killed and David mourns for him and Ephesians 4. 25-5.2 where Paul gives a lot of moral advice to live a new life as God’s people in Christ. There will be no parallel Children’s Ministry till Sunday 19th August however play area will be available for kids at the back of the church. Following worship, Cool Drinks and Light Refreshments will be served at the back of the church.

The church council members and some of the volunteers have recently completed Safeguarding Training – Level 2 which was held here in Prague under the leadership of the Diocesan Safeguarding Trainer and our Chaplaincy Safeguarding Officer. If you would like to know more about it or if you have any concern of safeguarding nature you wish to report, however small, please get in touch with the Safeguarding Officer Alison Hellam and/or the churchwardens Gordon Truefitt and/or Stephen Weeks.
Due to the fact that there are some specific requirements from the Diocese that need to be met before a choir is formed and starts practicing, the formation of our choir and practice sessions must be postponed until those requirements are fulfilled.
We are currently looking for a New WEBMASTER to take care of our online presence. Minimum requirement is making sure we are legal and have renewed our permissions and licenses. You need to update the website atleast twice a week by uploading past messages, forthcoming events etc. If you are interested do let Gordon, Stephen or anyone on the church council know or reply to this message.
Celebratory Prayer for birthdays and wedding anniversaries or any other such occasion is a part of our regular service. You are invited to send to me the details of your birthday or any special occasion for which you would like us to pray, by email to this address.
Yours in His Service,
Nathanial
