We’ve got an exciting opportunity to join up with other local churches to go to Soul Survivor this year. We’d love you to be involved, so for more information read the letter.

Are you up for a night of games with consoles, networked PCs and plenty of food? Yep? We’ve got just the ticket. Our fun packed upper school sleepover has all this, plus some great time hanging out with friends. We’d love to see you and your mates there, and yeah, we’re a church, but there’s no preaching on this sleepover – we promise! (Of course, if you want to ask us awkward questions about God and stuff, well, we’ll try and answer them, but we wanna have fun on the consoles too!) Up for it? Just get your parent/guardian to sign the form available for download above (if you’re really nice you could fill it in ready for them!). Then get it to Chris Johnson at Russell Park Baptist Church Office, 90 Denmark Street by Wednesday 10 Feb with £3 for your food. Don’t forget to bring a sleeping bag and PJs. Boys and girls will be sleeping separately, when you’ve had enough of the games! You’ll need to be picked up by 10am on 14 Feb (or stick around for the church service).
Theme: Alcohol
Aim: To explore a positive Christian perspective on alcohol, and generally pleasing God
Christians are far more known for what they’re not into than what they are. Therefore, rather than this Sunday’s teaching being about the negative effects of too much alcohol, we’re looking at the subject from another perspective – how can we best please God, and why would we want to? We’ll consider our relationship with God, how this can be helped and harmed, and how we can live authentically as we were designed: to please God.

24/7 Meeting Info: The Importance of Integrity (17 Jan)
0 Comments | Posted by Chris in 24/7
Theme: Integrity
Aim: To explore the meaning of integrity and why it is more important than ever in today’s society
Integrity is a foreign concept to many in society today, for whom it is no problem to hold different sets of values and beliefs according to the arena in which we find ourselves. In this session, we’ll be reflecting on Simon Guillebaud’s challenge to completely lay down our lives for Christ, and allowing Christ to shine through us and seeking the Holy Spirit to be our moral and spiritual compass in every situation, not just when we’re around other Christians.
Key Bible Verses: Luke 14:25-35

Snippets, Scripture and Songs

Get the picture from a number of perspectives as some of the young people from Russell Park Baptist Church re-tell the Christmas story in a modern setting in a number of short sketches from different characters perspectives.
Varied and funny, yet with a realism that roots it all. One performance only, so don’t miss out!
Snippets, Scripture and Songs is the title, and we’ll be performing on the morning of Sunday 20th Dec, at 10.15am.
It’ll be instead of our ‘normal’ Sunday service, so come prepared for a change!
The Crux is back up! Welcome back, I hear you all cry. Well, probably not that many of you, as I imagine it is rarely checked by many people now. However, we are back up, and because of the success of a similar venture with the Rock Solid blog, we’re introducing weekly meeting updates by email that will be automatically sent out to you if you subscribe. What’s more, to make your life easier, there’s buttons so you can share stuff from here that you like straight to Facebook, Twitter and a few other like them too!
There’s more to come, so watch this space!
