St Augustine's report back


It was good to have the mission team from St Augustine's College (where they are training to be ordanied ministers) with us today at St James. 
 
On November 5th they spent the day at the Blue, chatting to local people, finding out what they are thankful for about Bermondsey and finding out their prayer needs.
 
Today they reported back to us and they led the prayers in our service, praying for the people of Bermondsey.

Armistice Day

Lest we forget


 Great turnout today at the West Lane War Memorial for Armistice Day with many schools represented, including 3 Norway from St James's School (pictured), together with the Mayor, the Councillors, the British Legion, the Deputy Lord Lieutenant, and the Deputy Mayor from our French twin town of Clichy. #lestweforget2022


 Earlier we had a service in the church with all the children from St James's School as we gathered together to remember, to take part in the two minutes silence and to hear the words of Jesus: “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God
