So the Carharts have had a week off work together this week, our first since February, which has been fantastic. Despite the ocassional rain it's lovely to be able to enjoy some peace at home, even if we are missing our usual summer holiday and activities. I realise I have little to report today except to draw your attention to the message from the stewards concerning opening the building, which you can find below.
Time is sometimes too tight to involve others in readings but if you would be interested in taking part in one of our on-line services do let me know.
Some of you have been keeping me up to date on your own weeks activities and this has been great to read, do keep it up. If you have something you would like me to share here, just say.
I'm going to finish by quoting Billy Graham this week "I've read the last page of the Bible. It's all going to turn out all right." I think he has a point, I feel a great assurance in the knowledge that God is love, he is just and righteous and its this loving, righteous God that has read, written and sealed the last page of the Bible and indeed eternity. Yes I know eternity cant have a last page but you know what I mean :-)

Right I think thats all for this week, hopefully there will be more to share next week.
Jon, Helen, Josh and Beth

Church re-opening

The Church Council has decided not to re-open the church at the beginning of September. The main reason being the majority thought it was too soon and too difficult in view of distancing and cleaning requirements. A risk assessment was carried out by Di Smart and Fran Cook (Stewards).
