Our first new-style evening service will be on 29th July at 6:15pm. It will be an informal service in the foyer around the table, based around discussion on ‘Life on the Frontline’ material (and then Holy Habits from September) and it will end in sharing Holy Communion. This is a new venture which will develop over time. I'm hoping you will all help me shape this service to be something that feeds and challenges us. All are welcome! Katie.
