Get Ready! Holiday at Home is coming in July

On the 6th, 7th and 8th July at St. Andrews Church, Undercliffe, there will be 3 days of fun and enjoyment for those who come. This is the programme which has been planned:-

Monday: at Church with chatting, games and food.
Tuesday: a trip to York with a River Cruise, 3 Course Lunch and a guided tour of York Minster
Wednesday: at Church with fun, food, and entertainment.

The bookings will open in May, so get yourselves ready and make a note of the dates. If you have not been before, Holiday at Home is primarily for elderly people who would not normally get a holiday. If you go to a relatives caravan for a couple of weekends, that does not exclude you. If you go to the Bahamas for 4 months a year, well - that is a different story! If you need more details before you decide whether to go, please contact myself and I will be happy to tell you more.

To those who have been before - I look forward to seeing you again.

This is for anyone throughout the circuit. I will give out more information later on, so get ready.

PS A reminder to helpers….we shall be recruiting volunteers shortly.

Circuit Talents Challenge

To one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one, to each according to his ability. Then he went away. He who had received the five talents went at once and traded with them, and he made five talents more. So also he who had the two talents made two talents more. But he who had received the one talent went and dug in the ground and hid his master's money ..."

For such times as these! - A good news story from Windhill!

For such times as these! (Esther 14:14) On June 1st James Stannet (from e:merge , a Christian Youth organisation) began his youth work for Christchurch LEP in Windhill. He says, "Well!

The wind among the trees

I sat among the trees once. And a wind was blowing. Quite a strong wind; I could hear it in the trees – rushing, rushing. A lovely sound, soothing to my ears. I stopped what I was writing and began to listen. I remembered that Jesus said that the Holy Spirit was like the wind. You could hear it; see its effect. But you couldn’t see the wind itself. You couldn’t see where it was coming from, nor going to. And I wondered, “Are you showing me something about your Spirit, Lord?” So I sat, and I listened, and I watched. They were big, old trees where I sat. Tall they were, in an ancient wood, well-branched, shapely. Beech, grey bark against the clear blue of the sky. And leaves: they were leaves that knew the wind; leaves that let the wind know them. They looked, like beach leaves look in a wind: full of life – and with a certain beauty all their own. I watched the great crowns of those great trees. I watched the branches sway and the ...
