Induction
and Ordination
On Saturday, 21 September, Reverend Richard Hall was ordained as a Baptist minister and inducted as our new pastor. The service was conducted by our regional minister, Reverend Claire Nicholls, who also preached.
We were delighted to be joined by Richard’s parents and family and many visitors, plus several people online. Richard comes to us from Warrington and it was good to meet people from his home church, High Cliffe Baptist, from Bristol Baptist College and from Minehead Baptist Church, where Richard was minister-in-training.
The period of vacancy has been a challenging one for our church, but we believe this settlement has God’s blessing and we look forward to Richard enjoying a long, successful, rewarding and happy ministry at Foots Cray.

Love in a box
Last Christmas we again supported the Love in a Box campaign of the Mustard Seed Relief Mission. This project allows schools, businesses, churches and other organisations and individuals to fill shoe boxes with gifts for the children in Moldova who would otherwise not receive a Christmas present. We sent several boxes.
Salvation Army
We also collected many donations of toys and other Christmas Gifts at our Toy Service last November, which the Salvation Army distributed to struggling families in the area.
