NEW…! SEP ‘Saturday Prayer Breakfast’

The SEP is launching a new venture in October with the start of a Saturday Prayer Breakfast.

This will be held at Wolverton House from 9 to10.30am on the 2nd Saturday of each month – beginning October 10th. £12 for ‘all you can eat and hot drink’.

Wolverton House.

We had a good time (and good food!) when we used the Wolverton House Carvery for our Sports Breakfast in May; so we had the idea to trial a return to this venue again each month for a set time of fellowship and prayer together. Mark the date, and join us if you can…

News of this event and full details of what’s going on across the Partnership in September can be found by downloading the SEP newsletter here.
