MINE Together Harvest Service
Thanks to everyone who donated so much last Sunday for Thriving Walker. Also for all the marvellous refreshments brought along to share with our MINE church friends. It was a terrific spread and our thanks as always to everyone involved in setting things up and serving drinks. It was a great turn out that caught us a bit off guard but it was great to see so many from the MINE churches come along.

Fresh Starts
Revd: Tim Ferguson
The mood of the country is hard to sum up, with a new government voted in with one of the lowest turnouts in recent times.
