The Sunday Reminder and Weekly News Updates

The Sunday Reminder is Weymouth Baptist Church’s Monthly newsletter. Published in two editions on the first Friday of the month, the printed four-page version is available at the door on Sunday mornings. A large-print copy for the visually impaired can be ordered on application to the church office.

The second version is also published as a PDF file on the first Friday of the month and emailed to members. It includes the Mission News as a supplement when available. On the remaining Fridays in the month, the emailed Weekly News Update is sent to members.

Regular attendees can also request a copy; contact the Church Office via the Contact Form.

Mission News

Compiled by Rosemary Croft, the Mission News is published as news becomes available, and comes as a supplement to the emailed version of the Sunday Reminder, or a printed copy available from the Hub in the church Welcome Area.
