Family Friendly ‘Bugs & Beasties’ service this Sunday 4th August at 4pm

Come along to the church on Sunday to join in the family friendly ‘insect service’ led by Reverend Nick. Celebrate everything that crawls, jumps and slides and immerse yourself in the Bugs & Beasties display.

Cake and refreshments afterwards. A lovely way to spend a summer evening and you’ll be helping to keep the church open.

The Barn takes its summer rest in August, so here’s a round up of everything that’s happening before then:

On Sunday (July 21st) at 4pm Be Still and Rest marks the end of a busy season with quiet, stillness and the opportunity to make a wind chime, if you wish!  

Monday (22nd) sees Warm Welcome at the Barn from 11am until 2.30pm. Has salad weather finally arrived!?

Art Cafe in the Barn has been rescheduled from July 24th to 31st, 10.30am-12.15pm. We going to be looking at/drawing/making flowers at our end of term special!

News from Elsewhere:

I spotted this art trail across remote churches on the English-Welsh border on the Art + Christianity website. Looks interesting… Click here to read it.

Thank you for your support for the Barn during the year. I you have a good and restful summer.
