Dear friends
Thank you to all who came for softball and hotdogs on the Common last Thursday! The weather was lovely and our two teams - Hotdogs and Leaping Leopards - played brilliantly with the Hotdogs ending up victorious, by 1 point!! A huge thank you to Katie Brodie and friends for umpiring with such efficiency!
This Sunday Hilary and Colin will be looking at ‘Miracles’ at 10:30 at Sideways. Do come along for a warm welcome with croissants, coffee and lively discussions! And if you fancy some peace and quiet time with God, then do join me for the Julian meeting at 6pm where we have a short reflection then stillness for 20 minutes. We also have a new Hymn suggestions box for you to place your favourite hymns in - ones we haven’t had for a while and maybe some new ones for us to try!
This Sunday at Christ Church Virginia will be leading us in our Parish Communion service at 10am with the wonderful Leith Hill Choirs. Do come along and stay for refreshments and chat after the service.
We look forward to welcoming you to our churches this weekend 😊
With love,
Rev’d Kia
