Celebrate Fairtrade
As we start a new year as a Fairtrade church, it is inspiring to look at Fairtrade’s wrap up video for 2024. It highlights the incredible achievements brought to life through the stories of farmers, workers, partners, campaigners, and supporters like all of us at Immanuel.
Fairtrade
Immanuel has been a Fairtrade Church since the early 2000s, and we renewed our commitment in 2022. We serve only Fairtrade tea, coffee, chocolate, and sugar.
Each year, our All Age service in September focuses on some aspect of Fairtrade – this year it is tea. On Sunday 14th September our 10am All Age Service for Fairtrade will be led by Rosemary.
Fairtrade Fortnight runs 22nd September – 5th October 2025.
Little Dots Play Village is at Immanuel Church on Monday and Friday mornings.

RISE UP!
RISE UP! is a new campaign from The Mothers’
Union. It aims to raise awareness and
understanding about domestic abuse.
In support of this campaign, and in line with
Immanuel’s own policy on domestic abuse, you will see a poster on the noticeboard with the local helpline number. Please raise awareness of this.
Take Five is a national campaign that offers straight-forward and impartial advice to help people protect themselves from financial fraud. Fraudsters will use many tactics to obtain money or financial information from us. Be extremely wary of unsolicited phone calls claiming that there is an issue with your bank account or requesting assistance with an ongoing bank or police investigation.
Remember not to share your PIN, bank card, or withdraw money or buy items on behalf of a stranger, no matter who they say they are. For more information visit takefive-stopfraud.org.uk
Vinted at Immanuel!
To help us raise funds for Immanuel just bring to church unwanted, good quality, clothes (for men, women and children) and give them to Helena and Ian, who will sell them on Vinted.
Seasonal clothes are preferred (no winter clothes yet) – children’s clothes are particularly popular. Any questions? Have a chat with Helena and Ian.
Coffee & Chat at Immanuel
The church is open to the community on the third Friday of each month. This is an opportunity to meet friends, old and new. Refreshments will be available and there may be a quiz or craft activity too. Everyone is welcome. The next Coffee and Chat is Friday 19th September 2:00pm.
At Holy Cross, Billesley
