| At the start ofthe year, we welcomed Aspley and Awsworth |
|||
|---|---|---|---|
| Methodist Churches as classes of Nuthall Methodist church. We are |
|||
| now one church on three sites. Aspley meet on a Tuesday afternoon | |||
| at St Teresa's Catholic Church Hall in Aspley at 2.30pm and |
|||
| Awsworth meet on a Sunday morning 10.30am at the Youth wing of |
|||
| the Village Hall in Awsworth. It has been good to get to know |
|||
| members from both churches. |
|||
| We began the year with a celebration of Harvest, worshipping and |
|||
| sharing lunch together. |
|||
| A memorial service was led by Rev Andrew following the death of |
|||
| Queen Elizabeth and a book of condolence was opened. |
|||
| Remembrance Sunday was led by Rev Andrew on Basil Russell |
|||
| Park followed by a service at Nuthall. Our Brigades took a prominent |
|||
| part in the Parade. | |||
| Advent and Christmas were very busy occasions with Advent |
|||
| Meditations, the Nativity Play, Carol service, Christmas Services and |
|||
| the Journey to Bethlehem. A wonderful uplifting experience. We also had a visit from Hempshill Hall School where we provided a variety |
|||
| Summary | of main | ofactivities led by Sandra. The Circuit staff provided us with an |
|
| achievements | excellent book of meditations for Advent. |
||
| during the 202$ |
year 202+- | Gifts were provided for the Food Bank through the Reverse Advent |
|
| calendar and Donations from the Hungry Lunch |
|||
| Itwas lovely to celebrate all these occasions without the restrictions |
|||
| that the pandemic had put upon us for the last few years. |
|||
| Lent Bible study groups followed with everyone studying Ephesians. |
|||
| Once again the Circuit staff provided us with a booklet ofdaily |
|||
| meditations to take us through Lent and Holy Week. |
|||
| Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday shared meal, Good Friday services |
|||
| and Easter Sunday services were really well attended. On Easter |
|||
| Sunday 120people were present at Nuthall morning worship. |
|||
| Thank-you to those who set up the Easter Garden. Thank-you also |
|||
| for the generous gift of Easter baskets and Easter eggs. |
|||
| At Pentecost we were able to share in the Circuit outdoor service at |
|||
| Calverton. | |||
| We have taken part in two Circuit events at Bestwood Park. The first | |||
| gave us an opportunity to showcase our church and learn about what other churches were doing around the Circuit. We were also |
|||
| able to share our expertise with others. The display we produced |
is |

| The Ecochurch have been extremely busy and we thank them for |
|
|---|---|
| their enthusiasm and for sharing their knowledge with us |
|
| We have supported Bulwell and Bestwood Food Bank throughout |
|
| the year. We participated in the Shoebox Appeal at Christmas. Our |
|
| annual Coffee Morning was held in May to raise funds for Christian |
|
| Aid. Collecting for JMA has been ongoing throughout the year. We |
|
| also held an appeal for the Turkey Syrian earthquake. Tools for |
|
| Africa is coordinated by Doug and Margaret also Jars ofGrace. |
|
| We were delighted to welcome the Hope Choir to one of our |
|
| morning services. Itwas a very happy joyful occasion. |
|
| Throughout the year it has been wonderful to celebrate Baptisms |
|
| welcoming many families into our church. |
|
| Sadly we have also lost several members ofour church who have |
|
| died during the year. We miss them all but give thanks for their lives |
|
| and witness. | |
| In preparation for the new Connexional year we were matched with |
|
| the Rev Jason McMahon Riley in January. He is a Probationer who |
|
| will be supported by a team of people from the Circuit. We look |
|
| forward to welcoming and working with Jason. As a Probationer |
|
| Jason will primarily be responsible for Nuthall, Aspley and |
|
| Awsworth. | |
| We will be saying farewell to Rev Andrew and his family in July. He |
|
| has had pastoral care of Nuthall and Awsworth for the past seven |
|
| years and Aspley coming under his care later. What a rollercoaster | it |
| has been. The pandemic certainly had a huge impact during that |
|
| time but as Rev Andrew has preached to us all in recent weeks |
|
| there is a real sense ofexcitement and anticipation here in Nuthall |
|
| about the future and way forward for our church. He will leave |
|
| Nuthall in a good place. We thank Andrew for his Christian witness, |
|
| direction, enthusiasm, sense of humour, pastoral care and ministry |
|
| here in Nuthall both as our minister, as Co-Superintendent of our |
|
| Circuit and as Deputy Chair of District. | |
| We are very fortunate to have many capable people who volunteer |
|
| for a wide variety of roles within our church. Thank-you to everyone |
|
| who volunteers in any capacity large or small to make our church a |
|
| welcoming safe place for all. Thank-you also to those who support |
|
| the work ofthe Circuit. | |
