  • Advent in Narnia

    Our Advent in Narnia series concluded today (I was sorry to miss today's but alas two many plates to spin meant I was elsewhere).

    It has been fun, with good attendances and a lovely atmosphere.  We also raised £70 for the Christian AId CHristmas appeal, which will be matched by the UK Government, so that's pretty good too!

  • #Advent Challenge Day 17

    Oops, forgot to upload this earlier... was too busy with other things! And being busy took the easy option of text donation.

    Dear Catriona

    In a world of plenty, many still face a daily struggle just to get by. In England alone, the number of people sleeping rough has risen by at least 55% since 2010.

    Poverty and inequality isn’t a new phenomenon. In fact, even some of the earliest-written parts of the Bible talk about caring for those in need.

    A view from the Bible

    "Defend the rights of the poor and the orphans; be fair to the needy and the helpless."

    Psalm 82.3
