My Bible

       Have you a passage from the Bible which is special to you? Has it
       helped you through difficult times or filled you with joy or hope for
       the future? Do you think it might help or encourage other people if
       you shared it? At the end of January Hazel Southam from the Bible
       Society will be coming to Swanage URC to talk to people about a
       time in their life when a specific passage from the Bible spoke to
       them, what that text was and how it helped. She is willing to visit
       anyone who would find it difficult to leave home.

       A brief summary, two or three paragraphs, will be printed in Word
       in Action, the Bible Society magazine, and added to the section My
       Bible on the Bible Society web site. It looks like this   https://
       www.biblesociety.org.uk/latest/mybible/it-was-5-january-a-few-
       years-ago/

       People will be photographed, but not named, giving a level of
       anonymity.

       We hope that 5 or 6 people will be willing to take part. We can
       Invite people from other churches but we're convinced we have
       more than enough folk in our own church with a story to tell of
       God's goodness to us through the Bible. If you would like to be
       interviewed, or want to know more, please talk to Lex or Anne
       Squires.                                                  Anne Squires
