Introducing Matthew & Helen

This month we are delighted to welcome Matthew & Helen Browell to Acorn, as Matthew begins a part-time role at the church as the new ‘Youth Work Co-ordinator’. During the next two years we keen to invest in young people in and through the church as well as starting new initiatives for reaching out to children and families.

Matthew is also a member of a well-known local band ‘The Steels’ and Helen is currently studying medicine at Sunderland University.

More Than Gold 'Get Set' Tour

As part of our preparation for outreach during the Olympics this summer, we would like to take as many people as possible from Acorn to the ‘Get Set’ tour date in Gateshead on Saturday March 17th.

‘Thousands of churches are already making plans to reach out during the 2012 Games. These ‘Get Set’ days give them the help needed to be at their very best. Every church, large of small, will benefit.’ (John Burns)

The programme includes sessions on Running a Community Festival, Using Sport to Impact Every Age-group, Reaching Children and Youth, the Torch Relay and your Community, Prayer, Using International Mission Teams etc.

If you are interested in going on March 17th please let Phil know asap.
