Fellaship - Men's Group
Fellaship is a men's group run by the men of Christ Church that focuses on enjoying activities and exploring topical and relevant issues that connect with men's lives today. It aims to build friendship and faith in a relaxed and informal atmosphere of social activities and get-togethers. One of the great strengths of fellaship is its diversity of membership, with its common foundation of men experiencing similarly demanding lifestyles. It meets for breakfast on a Saturday morning on alternate months, with a varied programme of social events and meetings. We also have a monthly meeting for prayer. We have enjoyed curries, quizzes and speakers on a wide variety of topics. Anyone wanting to get involved in fellaship or just wanting to keep up with what's going on, should contact fellaship@ccfh.org.uk or Alan Dye via the Church Office.

Bernard Palmer
“Cure for Life”
David is an evangelistic Bible teacher who was appointed a visiting Scholar by ‘Reasons to Believe’ in Los Angeles. A popular speaker in universities and churches both at home and overseas, he has written widely on the evidence for the Christian faith and what being a Christian means.
Bernard went from Bedford School to Cambridge University in 1983 where he read Natural Sciences and he was then awarded an open scholarship to the Royal London Medical School. He captained the Tennis club and also took a year out to be the first student worker for St Helen’s Bishopsgate with the Rev Dick Lucas. His career was in general surgery with major interests in Surgical Oncology and Gastrointestinal Surgery.
He became a convinced Christian when an undergraduate in Cambridge and has been a Bible teacher since. He has been active in the Christian Medical Fellowship and is the author of ‘Cure for Life’, which has been translated into many languages. This book was originally written for his patients to try to answer their questions about the purpose of life but this book has since found a world-wide niche and has been translated into many languages. He was asked to help found Christchurch Baldock in 2000AD where he regularly teaches.
Bernard’s wife, Rosy retired from nursing when they had a family. They have four Christian children in Medicine, Design, Mission Work and Ministry. Bernard and Rosy now have 12 grandchildren whom he loves and longs to teach tennis.
