Sozo meetings - Romsey 2012/13 
At Mountbatten School

The Sozo meetings are led by Pastor Marion Daniel, with her family and team. Many people who attend are also attached to local churches and join us every third week throughout the year for additional teaching and fellowship. We are not an established church, but a ministry within the Body; with a vision for healing, miracles, deliverance and victorious living.

Meetings

We would appreciate people arriving early to be ready to worship at 2.30pm. We would ask folk to enter into the presence of God as they come through the door and get "caught up" in praise and worship. The service finishes approx 5pm.

Refreshment Facilities

If you have travelled a long way and would appreciate a drink upon your arrival, please see a steward. Please note that it is only possible to offer this to the minority who have been several hours travelling. Stewards are available throughout the service should you have any urgent needs. Immediately after the service, refreshments are available. Drinks, sandwiches, cakes etc. are on sale.

Bookstall

There is an extensive range of Books, CDs, DVDs and tapes available, some of which are not available from mainstream Christian bookshops (click here to see our on-line catalogue!)
The message of the day is available at the bookstall immediately after the service on DVD, CD or tape.

After Service Fellowship

Get to know others from all over England, and fellowship over tea! - Stay to share, pray and encourage one another.

Counselling (6.30pm-9pm)

We are in faith that your needs will be met during the service, please respond to all the ministry offered. If you decide after the meeting that you would still like personal counsel, please see a steward who will direct you to the counselling co-ordinator.

We appreciate that most people want to be seen as early as possible, but we use our discernment over timing of appointments and endeavour to help the weak first.

Children's Ministry

Children are encouraged to take a full part in the services. That can either be with their parents or by joining the Faith School leaders and other children. The leaders join together with the children for the Praise & Worship and then during the Word, the children go off to their own meeting." Abraham's Children" is a group for ages from 3 to 13. They are escorted to and from their meetings by the leaders.

After the main meeting we have "After Sozo Club". By signing your child in and out they can be left until 8pm for fun, games, arts & crafts in various different gyms and rooms. ALL leaders have been fully Police Checked & approved and we adhere to the Church Child Protection Agency, (see below).

Child Protection

This information is here to benefit all who come to our meetings.

Sozo Ministries International has a Child Protection Policy in place which has been formulated in consultation with the Churches Child Protection Agency. We include an extract from the policy below for information.

Fellowship Statement - The fellowship has a growing children’s and young people’s ministry. The Trustees and the Fellowship Leadership Team, hereafter “the CC” (Church Council), takes seriously its responsibility to protect and safeguard the welfare of children and young people entrusted to the church’s care.

Fellowship Mission - As part of the mission, the Church Council is committed to:

• Listening to, relating effectively and valuing children and young people whilst ensuring their protection within church activities.
• Encouraging and supporting parents/carers.
• Ensuring that children’s/youth workers are given support and training.
• Having a system for dealing with concerns about possible abuse.
• Maintaining good links with the statutory child care authorities.
  

Please note that it is a SCHOOL RULE that children should not be left unattended at any time whilst they are with us.
