In response to speculation in the media, Churches Together in Cinderford and Heywood Community School put out the joint statement on Tuesday 24th May:

"Everyone appreciates the tremendous efforts and energy that teachers are making to improve local education. Churches Together are working with local schools and the local council to explore options to secure additional investment for education in the town of Cinderford that will bring further benefit to local children, families and the town community.

We are not in the business of raising expectations that we cannot deliver. Consequently it would be inappropriate for us to comment further at this time."

What is baptism all about?
"For we died and were buried with Christ by baptism. And just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glorious power of the Father, now we also may live new lives."
Romans 6:4 (NLT)

1. Baptism is an outward sign of an inward change
2. A demonstration that I will follow the example of Jesus
3. It's the next step after believing

As they rode along, they came to some water, and the eunuch said, "Look! There's some water! Why can't I be baptized?"
Acts 8:36
