Christ Church Lille Newsletter 4 August 2023

Have you ever seen lavender growing? Maybe you have been to the south of France and enjoyed the sight and scent of fields of lavender.
If you have a garden you may have some too, but this rain has made it look a bit sad.
Lavender is known for its soothing properties, but if you haven't got any lavender handy, we hope you are able to relax a little this summer, even if you aren't able to take a holiday.
The Working with Christ group continues to meet throughout the summer, and their next meeting is on Saturday 5 August at 10 am. More details here.
Sunday 6 August 10:30: A service of Holy Communion

Prayers for Ukraine

Please remember to pray for all affected by this conflict.
We are entirely self-funded and we have cut back our expenses as much as possible; but we still need a regular income.
We're grateful to everyone who continues to support the church and its work, which goes beyond weekly services.
