We're having a cleaning blitz on Saturday morning 16 August. We have volunteers for weeding and cleaning the outside of the church, but would love to have helpers to hoover and dust inside the church. If you are not reclining in a deckchair somewhere ?, could you join us for an hour or so? If so, thank you! contact churchoffice@christchurchlille.fr

Keep cool!
This week it's hot again, so we're sharing a recipe for home-made lemonade.
In a blender or food processor, blend 3 chopped lemons, 1/2 litre of water and about 120g of sugar.
|
|
When finely chopped, sieve into a jug and top up with another 1/2 litre of water (still or fizzy).
|
|
Serve with ice or frozen lemon or lime slices - and mint if you like.

Services continue every Sunday throughout the summer and into autumn. We are grateful to the Reverend Elisabeth Dean, who will be leading services every Sunday except for the first Sunday of the month.
