The Great Big Green Week

Please join us on our annual bio blitz of the churchyard on

Sunday, June 9th starting at 11:15

 

The results will enable us to consider potential changes to the management plan.

Please let Debra know if you are able to help.

The first, “Lily’s Promise” by Lily Ebert, a compelling memoir of the Holocaust.  Very powerful and moving, a testament to Lily’s irrepressible spirit.

The second,  Elif Shafak’s “The Island of Missing Trees”, historical fiction recording the impact of ethnic division and how trauma moves through generations – loved this book.

Using the theme of generational trauma, Ashley Audrain’s “The Push”, tells of the making and breaking of a family in a tense psychological thriller

Some of us did this for a week in March.

Our household, just the two of us and the dog, logged 44 pieces of plastic – that equates to 2,288 pieces per year.  We try to recycle as much as we can but can we reduce the amount of plastic in our home?  Crisps – who doesn’t love them?  We could make our own…but we’ve found a supplier who uses recyclable bags – taste test coming up!

 

The next monthly walk will start at 10:00 am and will leave from the church porch on Saturday, May 11th, followed by light refreshments.

Please let Debra know if you can come.

 

This meeting is open to all. It will take place on Sunday, May 12th at 10:45 at the church.

There are vacancies for two churchwardens, a secretary and members of the PCC.

Copies of the accounts and reports are on display in the church porch.
