THE MAGAZINE
Happy 2020 to all our readers and contributors. The next Magazine is published in February so,
please put aside some time to write your news, views and opinions and share
them with the church family.
ALPHA Course starting
in January.
I want to thank all of you who have shown interest in the Alpha course,
unfortunately we don’t have enough people to initiate the course at this time.
However, we just need to postpone it until after Easter. This will give us time
to do a bit more advertising and get the word out so we can get a larger group
of people. I do apologise to those who did sign up, from experience I find
Alpha more impactful when there is a good group of people. So I hope you can
wait just a couple of months and join us again. Please do spread the word and
hopefully we can get a group from the village and the church.
Due
to a misunderstanding, the Methodists will be joining us at St Cuthbert’s for a
10:30 am service on the 19th January; we will not be going to the
Methodist. Sorry for any confusion.
Time to Think About
Holiday
Our thoughts begin to turn to holidays about this
time of year.
For the last 2 years Bernard and I have stayed in a
Christian hotel at Grange in the Lakes. We have thoroughly enjoyed
it and would certainly recommend the hotel and location. Last year
I joined a small group for a 3 day Art workshop whilst Bernard planned to
explore the beautiful countryside on foot, by train and in the car.
There's so much to do and I joined him in my spare time.
Food is delicious, staff so welcoming and lovely
'rooms with a view'.
There are a few attractive brochures at
the back of the church to browse over coffee or why not take one home for more
information. Get dreaming, planning and booking !!
Contact Christine Higgins on 259 2624 for more
details
Advance
date: 25th February we will be having a pancake
evening and beetle drive. There will be fun for all and give a good start into
our Lent season. So please put the date in your diary.
PCC
Great Glen 7:30 pm at St Cuthbert’s if you have anything
