Child Sponsorship



These two Awesome fella's will be sponsored by RPC Youth from now on.
We heard about the work of Compassion International at the Audacious conference & many of us were touched & challenged by the need of children across the world.





Josival (the tall one on the left!) lives in Brazil.
He lives with mum, dad & two other siblings 12km north of Reclife
Josival will be 9 years old on the 3rd of October.

Blair (cute guy on the right!) lives in Uganda.
He lives with his mother & four other siblings 50km north-east of Kabale.
Blair became 3 years old on the 14th of April.


There will be more information/news about these guys in the weeks & months to come.
In the mean-time, please begin to pray for them.
If you would like to sponsor them, please see Stuart.
We are looking for 30 sponsors of £1.05 a month.
And you can take as many of those as you want!
For example, 3 sponsorships would be £3.15 a month (approx 79 pence a week)


If you want more information about the sponsorship, see Stuart.

UNITE!

We are delighted to say that we are part of a new Youth initiative in Rotherham which comes under the banner of "Unite."
Initially, the main purpose of Unite is to do exactly what it says on the tin!!!
There has already been one United Youth Event where youth from 7 different fellowships came together for an evening of Praise, Worship & Encouragement.
These events are to be held every second month, so the next one will be on SUNDAY 13th of SEPTEMBER @ URC HERRINGTHORPE.
It will begin @ 7:30pm.
Many other things might develop through this group in the future. Amongst other things, there are plans to bring a decent christian band into Rotherham next year.
For more info & regular updates on what's going on with Unite, you can join the Unite group on Facebook.
