Paul and Barnabas – from Bubbles
Paul and Barnabas travelled around telling lots of people about Jesus. They knew God was with them and God is with us too!
Dear God,
When I stay at home you are with me
When I go out you are with me
I’m so glad you are with me wherever I go.
Thank you. Amen
a passion for life

BCY Pray For Schools
This is to remind you of the Bury St Edmunds Pray For Schools event on Monday 25th January, 7.30pm - 9pm, Trinity Methodist Church, Brentgovel Street, Bury St Edmunds.
This time round we will be excitedly introducing you to our new intern, Mark Calver, who will tell us more about his hopes for his 6 months with BCY. We will also be hearing more about the LIFE exhibition at St Peter’s (scheduled for February) from Hazel Humphries; look at the plans for the youth and schools element of A Passion For Life; hear about an innovative way vicar Sue Nutt is engaging with her local primary school; and, lastly, get an update on Open The Book from Brian Clark. As you can see it's a packed programme and we hope to see you there!
We are really excited about what God will do as a result of the local church uniting in prayer for our children and young people, as well as their teachers and all those involved in working in schools - and we hope you will be joining us to be a part of it.
Matt, Nicola & Mark, BCY Staff Team
