FFP Community News Post 5^th November 2026

Last Sunday’s service was led by our Deacon, Pamela Scott. If, like me, you missed being at the service, there was a problem with the camera recording, but you can access an audio recording on our website langtouncentralchurch.org.uk.  There had been a Messy Breakfast that morning with the theme of ‘Let your light shine’  with appropriate glittery crafts!  Pamela’s sermon told us we are called to be saints, for a saint is simply someone whose life is shaped by the love of God. She encouraged us to base our lives on the Beatitudes, living as children of God following the instructions to show kindness, courage, hope and love to others in all walks of our lives.

Eileen has returned from holiday this week and will be leading our worship this coming Remembrance Sunday. Please note that the service will begin at 10.50 a.m. The Prayer Group will meet at 10 a.m. and those wishing to sing with the choir should meet with Richard at 10 a.m.  in the Elgin Room.  We have no specific Young Church meeting, but activity bags for young folk of all age groups are available.
