SHINE & SPOTLIGHT WOMEN’S PROGRAMMES
The Shine women’s programme is about equipping women with the knowledge and skills to understand who they are and who they would like to become. The programme is held on Friday mornings, and serves those women who are feeling isolated, abused or lonely.
Spotlight is a monthly women only safe community space, to find friendship and support while enjoying conversation. Women from all of our ministries are welcome
LOVE CHRISTMAS
Christmas is a season for kindness. A time to offer a fresh message of hope to those in need. Through Love Christmas, we can connect with our community, bring comfort as we reach out and share bags of kindness with those around us. We aim to inspire a contagious culture of kindness. And let people know that we are with them and they are not alone.
CARING FOR PRISON LEAVERS
Caring for Prison Leavers provides invaluable support for people leaving prison. Through the six-month Bridge Programme we aim to encourage and empower prison leavers to grow in their Christian faith and character, and connect into loving church communities. The Bridge Programme encourages prison leavers to grow in lifestyle, attitudes, thinking, and relationships, and fosters a community within the local church, helping prison leavers to break cycles of reoffending.
This year, CFPL will be equipping and supporting other churches to run the Bridge Programme.
