3D Course 
Diocesan course for Developing Disciples.
The information for this year’s course is now available.
There are 30 sessions to the course, with most starting in September, meeting weekly until June (with breaks at Christmas and Easter).
There are a number of venues including our own church with sessions taking place on various days and at various times.
If you are interested or want to know more, please have a word with Sandra.
Foodbank
The recent collections for Foodbank have totalled some 43.6 Kg, enough to supply 103 meals. The mixture of meats, pastas, long life milk, cordial, tea, coffee and tinned fruit are well received. In addition we have taken washing powder and other toiletries and these are very much appreciated as the ability to wash clothing and ourselves is almost as important as the food we eat.
The current mixture of foodstuffs is ideal, on the toiletry side we continue to need washing powder and toiletries for men but all contributions are very gratefully received. I would ask that you do not send fresh vegetables and fruit as the Foodbank has no resource to keep them in best condition and their shelf life is all too short.
Many thanks from the Foodbank

Welcome to Immanuel Highters Heath
Prayer for the week
O Lord, in a world where many are lonely,
we thank you for our friendships.
In a world where many are captive,
we thank you for our freedom.
In a world where many are hungry,
we thank you for our provision.
We pray that you will:
enlarge our sympathy,
deepen our compassion,
and give us grateful hearts.
In Christ’s name. Amen
(Terry Waite)

Prayer for Immanuel Church
Heavenly Father
We are the family of Immanuel.
We pray for all our family members both young and old. Help us to use every opportunity to care for each other through this season of change.
May we always welcome newcomers into our Church and may your limitless love shine out in all we strive to do.
We pray for the Diocese of Birmingham in these challenging times as they explore your will for the future ministry of your church.
Help us to grow together and give us hope.
Remind us that in our watching, waiting and listening,
You are Immanuel – God with Us.
Amen
