'Mary’s Knitting' (Nativity play) - a Good News story from Allerton.

It was wonderful to see our church full of families at our Carol and Gift Service. Everyone gave generously of toys and food for those less fortunate than ourselves in our community. Our young people, including cubs, scouts and their families, joined in a very different nativity led by Dave.

This lovely family service topped off what was a fantastic weekend at Allerton. Our annual Coffee and Carols event in aid of Action for Children was really well supported. Lots of new faces and a whopping £367 raised for the charity.

Thank you to all who helped in any way. Special thanks to Ley Top Singing Stars and Claire Pipe.

This is not an extended holiday but an opening to do something different, as a way of being refreshed in ministry; an opportunity to ‘power down’ and to get away from a hectic, diary-driven ministry, in order to spend more focused time with God. It is a requirement and not an option for ministers to take their sabbatical break. There have been two main aspects to consider in planning the sabbatical. The first has been to decide how I should use the time. For your interest, I am pressing on with studies begun through Leeds University (which could lead to the award of a PhD), reflecting on my wor...
