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.

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.

|
We can't do it without you!
