InteriorFront

WELCOME to our church, which serves the community of Coal Aston on the outskirts of Dronfield.

Since 1866 this building has been a focus of Christian worship and gospel preaching in the area.

Today, if you visit us, you will find lively, heartfelt and reverent worship, warm fellowship, and a wide range of weekday activities involving the church members, the Coal Aston community and people from wider afield. Do come along – we would love to meet you.

Appreciation

Our grateful thanks go to the following benefactors for generous grants towards the cost of a new projector:

The Benefact Trust
Derbyshire Voluntary Action
Dronfield Rotary Club's Community Lottery Fund

Members and friends will be pleased to know that as a result of these grants, it should be possible to purchase a new projector fairly soon. To help in topping up the fund, kindly patronize the 'once loved' jigsaw stall at the Spring Fair. Proceeds from this stall will go towards the Projector Fund.

The photographs in ‘Life on the Breadline’ are:
•    a powerful exploration of the experience of poverty in the UK
•    a critical examination of churches’ responses to poverty.   
The exhibition arose out of a three-year research project, based at Coventry University. The project showed that – in spite of claims about the decline of religion – faith groups remain key players in civil society, politics and, especially, in the struggle to defeat poverty.

 

A prayer for peace in the Middle East
by The Very Revd Canon Richard Sewell, Dean of St. George’s College Jerusalem

O God of all justice and peace we cry out to you in the midst of the pain and trauma of violence and fear which prevails in the Holy Land.

Be with those who need you in these days of suffering: we pray for people of all faiths – Jews, Muslims and Christians and for all people of the land.

While we pray to you, O Lord, for an end to violence and the establishment of peace, we also call for you to bring justice and equity to the peoples.

Guide us into your kingdom where all people are treated with dignity and honour as your children for to all of us you are our Heavenly Father. In Jesus’ name we pray.
