Saturday Barn Dance

 Saturday 19th October

 We were royally entertained/tortured (depending on your opinion of dancing) by the 'Sow's Ear Barn Dance Band'.  Everyone enjoyed themselves and left with smiles on their faces at the end of the evening (if a trifle exhausted).  Connor continued to dance in the car ALL THE WAY HOME in his 'off tilt windmill' way.

 

Connor pointing out the band during a moments respite from being pushed around the various circle dances.

Hannah & Keith Lawrence leading the way, much the same as everyone else, in a slightly bemused 'are we peeling off left or right' sort of way.

Lucy and Penny 'in the swing' of things.

Mary had to put up with Eric but seemed to cope reasonably well.

The band were fantastic.

 ......and half way through the evening Keith couldn't refuse the invitation to sit out the prancing and let his fingers do the dancing by becoming the 'augmented fifth' player in the band.

So thanks 'Sow's Ear' for a thoroughly wonderful evening.

Sunday 22nd September

Harvest this weekend- Sunday services led by Phil & Rosemary Mader-Grayson.

What is F.A.M.M.?

FAMM is “For All Mankind Movement”. It is project that focuses of the needs of immigrant workers in Abu Dhabi and Dubai and uses that opportunity to tell the gospel and train Christian workers to go to mission fields in their home countries.

An unexpected visitor.

Sunday morning we had an unexpected addition to the menu at morning worship.  Alan Saunders, complete with an eight foot long cross shared our service with us.  Visiting preacher Andrew Stockbridge shelved some of what he had prepared in order to interview Alan.  Alan is walking from Manchester to London (due to arrive on Tuesday) trailing the cross which has been giving him opportunities to share the Christian faith with folk along the way.    

to keep an eye on progress - and his future ventures

(Lets hope Tuesday is less wet than Monday was !)
