Please note that this will now be taking place at St. Mary's Church, Watton, since ASM's heating is currently not working. For more details, please contact Alan Cossey (alan.cossey@matvchurch.uk).
We will be having another teaching day at ASM on Saturday 12th October 2024. From ancient scrolls to best-selling paperbacks, the journey of how we received our Bible is a fascinating tale. It encompasses the challenges of Bible translation and touches on the efforts of organizations like the Wycliffe Bible Translators and the Bible Society. Rev. Dr. Sue Woan, with her gift of bringing such subjects to life, has led days at ASM before, on "A romp through the Old Testament", "Walking in New Testament Footsteps" and two half-days on the Gospel of Mark and the Gospel of John. We are delighted to have her back again. There will be free drinks available from 9.30 until 10.00 when the session proper will start. Green Pastures pop up book shop will be there so you can browse through their goodies during the break times and lunch. Please see the Eventbrite details below for more on parking for the event. Free tickets are now available from https://www.eventbrite.com/e/from-scroll-to-best-selling-paperback-how-we-got-our-bible-tickets-1000555607757.

Dan Gower from Open Doors
10 months ago
On Sunday 3rd March, Dan Gower from Open Doors is coming to tell us more about Open Doors and their work with persecuted Christians around the world. Open Doors is a non-denominational mission supporting persecuted Christians around the world. They work with local partners to distribute Bibles and Christian literature, give discipleship training and provide practical support, such as emergency relief aid. Open Doors' stated aims are to raise awareness of global persecution, mobilising prayer, support and action among Christians from around the world. Over 365 million Christians face persecution and discrimination - that's one in seven believers worldwide. You can stand with believers counting the highest cost for following Jesus.
Since becoming a Christian 40+ years ago, finding out about Open Doors, their work with persecuted Christians and hearing, at Open Doors events, from persecuted Christians from places like North Korea, Nigeria and Syria have been the biggest challenge - and encouragement - for me in all that time.
If you want to find out what real Christianity is all about, do come to one of our services on 3rd March. There will be more information at the 10.30 since we have more flexibility in the length of the service, but you are welcome to come to either (9.00 or 10.30).

Mark my Word and John - The Word becomes Flesh
1 year ago
TICKETS NOW AVAILABLE AT https://tinyurl.com/MATVMarkAndJohn
In the Mattishall and Tudd Valley benefice we use the Church of England lectionary when planning which texts to use as the basis of our sermons on Sundays. The lectionary is used by several major denominations and its aim is to help ensure that, over a 3 year period, the most important subjects get preached on at some point. With the New Testament Matthew's gospel is used one year (Year A), then Mark's the following year (Year B) and finally Luke's (Year C) before going back to Matthew and repeating the cycle. At certain important points in the church year (largely Christmas and Easter) parts of John's gospel are used each year. At certain points in the year (again around Christmas and around Easter) we are required to use some of the texts set for each Sunday, though there is some choice possible, but the rest of the year we can choose other readings if we so wish, e.g. if we want to do a series on something, such as the Beatitudes, which we did some time back.
Each new church year starts at the start of Advent and in 2023 it is 3rd December 2023. Thus, this December we will be entering Year B and hence will be majoring on Mark's gospel and continuing to use John's as required.
We are, therefore, taking the opportunity to ask Sue Woan back to spend a morning with us looking at Mark's gospel and then John's gospel after lunch.
- "Mark my word" - an exploration of Mark's gospel, will include extra focus on Mark’s beginnings and endings, which are very different from the other gospels. Why?
- "John - the Word becomes flesh" – includes a focus on the differences from synoptics (Matthew, Mark and Luke), the ‘signs’ and the I AM sayings which so shocked the Jewish leaders.
Sue has previous led days at ASM on "A Romp Through The Old Testament" and "Walking in New Testament Sandals", which have gone well. As with those previous events, there is no charge for the day, though contributions would be welcomed.

Advent Quiet Morning
3 years ago
‘Come with Me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest.’ Mark 6:31b
The Advent Quiet Morning is an opportunity to take some time out during this busy season. The morning will be centred on reflecting on scripture followed by some personal quiet time where you can engage with God in reflective and creative spaces, explore the thought provoking Prayer Walk or simply rest in His presence.
If you've never been on a retreat, the Quiet Morning is a good place to explore what that would be like.
You don’t have to stay for the whole morning, but you’ll get the most out of your time if you’re there from the start.
Some find it helpful to bring a notebook or journal.
We hope to see you there.

TIPS FOR THE USE OF ZOOM DURING OUR MEETINGS
=============================================
When you have joined use "Gallery view" to see who else is in the meeting and say, "Hello" if you want to.
Try to ensure the name you use when you join the meeting is a useful one, e.g. "Alan Cossey" rather than "Samsung Galaxy 7". If you forget to do it on entering, you can alter it once you have joined.
When the service has finished, but while the Zoom meeting is still running, use "Gallery view" again to see who is still there and wave to people as we say, "Goodbye" to each other.
