Church Day Out - Bowling
Our Church Day out was either going to be Banger Racing or Bowling and based
on the lovely bank holiday weather, we opted for the indoor choice. Fierce
competition followed with the youngest bowler (4) scoring the highest (118)
beating the oldest player (x) by just one point.

Christmas
Our Christmas celebrations this year have been really fun - Steel Bands,
Angels, Kings and a host of people joining us from around the community.
Pictures to follow soon...
50+ Harvest
Last Thursday, the 50+ club celebrated their harvest. Here are some pictures.
Family Service
Our first official family service took place on October 10th and we
celebrated Harvest. The Puppets made their debut and everyone learned about how
unfair the world is (the minority rich having 80% of the loaf).

Visitor's Sunday
The visitor's Sunday was held on 13th September and very well attended. Mr
Rowe spoke from Psalm 34 "O Taste and See that The Lord is Good". At the end of
the service, Maureen had a chance to taste and see as she was surprised with a
birthday cake.
