Men's Breakfast
One Saturday morning most months
(usually the first) at 7:30 a.m. the men of the church family meet at
Holy Trinity Holme, have a bacon butty (or two) and sit down together to
study God's word, discuss Christian issues affecting men, and pray
together. We have recently followed the challenging Men of Faith
study guide, and Biblical Answers to tough questions
If you would like to join us, or would

House Groups
There are 2 house groups which meet most weeks to study the bible,
pray and enjoy fellowship together. These provide a good opportunity to
broaden our knowledge of God's word. and to discuss issues with other
Christians. The House Groups are relaxed meetings which give us the
opportunity to both study God's word and to get to know each other better. The groups meet at different times during the week so that people
can hopefully fit into one of them..
The Burton evening study group have recently completed studies on
Grace, David - a man after God's heart, John - Jesus at the centre, and
Paul's letter to the Colossians. This group
meets at 20 Mowbray Drive at 8pm on Tuesday evening. If you would like
to join the group or find more about it then please contact Julie or
Kevin Gregory on 01524 781663
The Holme study group meets on a Wednesday at 8pm, and are currently
using "The purpose driven life" as a basis for study. If you would like
to join the group or find more about it then please contact Richard
Anson on 01524 781294 or Paul Baxendale on
