Banner making is Biblical and we work with the Lords guidance with prayers. The Banner Group was started in 1989 and we are still creating banners, our latest is for the new Chapel at the Chandraghona Hospital in Bangladesh. Currently there are only 3 of us but if you feel this is an area that you have a gift for then please contact Janet Stables through the church office.
To date we have made
a total of 39 banners Only a small selection is shown on this page
28 for the Church
1 for Playgroup
2 for Girls Brigade
3 for Mildmay Ugandfa
1 for Albania
1 for Shoeburyness High School
2 for Bangladesh
1 for Macedonia
From the figures above and the distribution of the work you can see that we play our part in our church mission statement.
