Thank You Tesco ~ ONCE

Again!

It was an absolute joy and pleasure to welcome volunteers from Tesco to our WORK DAY on Saturday

17th September. Not only did they provide the paint and decorate the kitchen so beautifully, but they also gave us a gift of a new window blind. The kitchen has now had a new lease of life and it has really freshened up this area of the chapel.

Many thanks to all who also helped with the scraping of paint in the chapel and porch areas. There will be a further work day

to complete this work during this month.

Radical Church A good time was had by all once again as we reconvened

in Café Rana following our summer break. All Life Groups are now following Daniel Wolpert’s book

“Creating a Life with God”. Refreshments and cake were accompanied by meaningful discussions and prayers. If you are

interested in joining a Life Group or attending Radical Church then please contact Rosa for details.

Messy Church

We celebrate the resumption of Messy Church on September 2nd whereby the theme was the Olympics and being on Jesus' team. It was a delight to have a genuine Olympic volunteer,(Margaret)

and a real Olympic torch to help show the importance of working together with the children.

BB We have also resumed BB, and we are extremely grateful to all our volunteers, but in particular

two of our helpers from Bryn Celynnog school, Tim and Josh. They have worked extremely well with the children and we appreciate their enthusiasm and dedication. With more and more youngsters coming to the BB sessions every Thursday we would very much appreciate more volunteers to help with the activities. If you are able to give some of your time on a Thursday evening then please see Rosa

for details.
