More about Creationtide
We are now in the 5th week of Creationtide.
|
Creationtide, or the Season of Creation, is the period in the annual church calendar, from 1 September to 4 October, dedicated to God as Creator and Sustainer of all life.
|
Last week we distributed some helpful information about your carbon footprint, how to make sense of it, and how to check your own. If you missed it, you can find a copy on our website. And if you use the carbon footprint calculator (links are given in the document and on the website), you might be surprised at some of the findings - let us know!

As part of our celebration of Creationtide, we celebrate Harvest on 6 October by sharing our gifts. Please remember to bring some non-perishable food items of all kinds along to the service that Sunday if you are able to do so. As in previous years, we'll be taking your gifts to the Protestant church for their food bank.
|
And after that, enjoy our church Harvest lunch together!

We were happy to welcome nearly 50 visitors to the church for Heritage Open Day on 21 September. Thanks to the volunteers who greeted and guided visitors - if we had more volunteers, we could be open for longer next year. Maybe that could be you?
