Today (Saturday 31st August) is the latest model railway exhibition. I particularly recommend the cooked breakfast from our catering team. The exhibition is also very child friendly and I enjoy the conversations with children (of all ages!) while I am running some trains.
Tomorrow sees our monthly Family Service, followed by our parish lunch for September. The news of the Kingswood parish Fete next Saturday came to me from conversations with people from Kingswood churches at recent parish lunch, and I am pleased to spread the word about our neighbour’s events as hey are to support our parish events.
I look forward to seeing you either this Sunday or on Welcome back Sunday,
Tim
