PSALMS stands for Painswick and Stroud Local Area Ministries and is an initiative that is supported by St George’s and our partners at Christchurch. Together we provide the resources to employ a part-time Sports Minister (Ruth Graveling) to work with the children and young people of Nailsworth. www.psalms.uk.net
Children and Youth Newsletter Spring 2011
St George’s Church and Christchurch have been half funding and supporting Ruth Graveling who is a PSALMS Sports Minister since the September 2008. Ruth works with the young people of Nailsworth teaching basketball and getting involved in other sports and the Newsletter (click link above) gives a summary of just some of the activities she is currently involved in. Ruth comes to our Family service on the third Sunday of each month to update us in what is happening. She is a Christian and her faith shines through naturally in all that she does. At the moment we are very excited about the Pulse Acadamy where 7 young men from 15 to 30 arelearning to become qualified sports coaches and our hope is that they will influence and help other young people in our town.
