Ephesians.3 16:19
"that he would grant you,according to the riches of HIS glory, to be strengthened
with might through HIS spirit in the inner man.That Christ may dwell in your hearts
through faith;that you,being rooted and grounded in love may be able to comprehend
with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height to know the
love of Christ which passes knowledge;that you may be filled with all the fullness
of God."

Women’s World Day of Prayer This service will take place in Altofts Methodist Church on Friday 7th March at 7.00 pm. The speaker is Doreen Sweeting. All welcome.
The Passion This Easter, Jesus is going to be broadcasted into 10 million homes. ‘The Passion’ is a dramatic BBC series retelling the death and resurrection of Christ scheduled to go out at peak time in 6 half hour slots between Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday. This is an exciting opportunity for evangelism.
Flooding In July the rain came down and ruined lots of people’s homes, some had to move out and some are still not back home. The PCC has agreed to give some money to this cause from their tithe giving.
Men Awake Present: A night of testimony with Ron Young @ The Black Swan, Tuesday 25th March @7.00 pm Ron is a powerful man of God, who we are sure has a lot to say about how his life has changed during his very active service in the Kingdom. Ron has seen plenty of front line battle, and we look forward to what he has to share with us, don’t forget the adventure starts here. Do you have any mates at work or within your network that you could bring along to the Upper Room, who knows what could happen, all welcome, we hope to see you then, Thank you - Roger Wills and Howard Budby.
Women on Wednesday Next meeting March 12th.
Dave and Sarah Clark will be absent from church for the next
6-8 weeks. They are taking part in a Diocesan placement scheme as Dave tests a calling to church leadership. Your prayer support would be very much appreciated.
Challenge yourself, a friend or congregation to walk the 43rd Halifax Long March on Easter Sunday Night - 23rd March. A 13
or 26 mile night hike raising money for Christian Aid. For more
information visit www.longmarch.org.uk.
Last Chance to decide to come to ‘Classical Jazz’ at the
Cathedral next Saturday (8th March at 7.30 pm). The Yorkshire Philarmonic Choir and guests from the world of swing and jazz, including John Hellewell (Supertramp & Crème Anglais) on
saxophone, present a musical night to be remembered. The
evening will swing you across the music pendulum, culminating in the feature piece ‘Mass in Blue’ by Will Todd. It’ll be a cool place to be (and that’s nothing to do with the Cathedral heating).

following dates:
- 29th March
- 3rd May
- 28th June
- 26th July
- 6th September
