We’ve a busy few weeks ahead of us with some upcoming food related events, which are a great opportunity to get together and have a chat.
Next up: Afternoon tea on Saturday 29th September.
Bury to Heaton Park walk
During our Bury to Heaton Park walk we took in the River Roch, Unsworth Pole and Egypt Farm before getting to Heaton Park.
Whilst there we visited the monument to John Paul II who with the help of his ‘popemobile’ had taken mass there in 1982.
First Aid @ St John’s
The British Red Cross will be holding a free 2 hour training course on ‘Helping adults at greater risks of falls’.
This will be at St John’s Hall on Saturday 10th November.
Registration beforehand is essential as numbers are limited. However, the course will be repeated at a later date if we’re over-subscribed.
Please use the contact form on this website to let us know that you wish to attend.
Journey of faith & Gill’s leaving do
Join us in a celebration of our journey of faith on 30th September from 10.30 am at a joint service at Christ Church.
We’ll also be saying goodbye to Gill Barnett as she packs her bags and takes up her new post in Rochdale.
Fruit and veg of the Spirit?
For Paul, an ideal community shows love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. He called these qualities the ‘fruit of the Spirit’.
But is that it? Did Paul mean that as an exclusive list – or are there more qualities that he missed off? Some that didn’t make the final cut? And anyway, why call them fruit and not vegetables?
And who cares anyway?
New dance class
Malcolm is starting a new Latino and Latin dance class on a Thursday.
Give him a call on 01706 872129 to mark your card.
Open Group in Autumn
As the name of the group suggests the evening is open to all. We meet on the second Wednesday of each month. It starts at 7.30pm and normally lasts just over an hour with a brew and a chat at the end.
One of the sessions is a Craft Night, hence the photo above. But most evenings are listening to speakers, either visitors or people from our own congregation.
If you’ve not been before, go on, give it a try!
