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

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,

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| **==> picture [40 x 10] intentionally omitted <==** |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.|| |Standard
