Our church home group will be meeting during Lent to discuss some of the group questions from the book that our vicar, Dana, recommended for Lent reading, "The Whole Easter Story - Why the cross is good news for all creation." It will meet on Thursday evenings ( this may be altered to Friday on occasions) starting on Thursday 13th and finishing 10th April. It is a continuation of our Bourton on the Hill advent home group although not all can make it - people come when they can! We say a time of 8pm for 8:15 to allow time to put children to bed and expect to finish at about 9:15pm. There are just a few of us and other people from other churches or villages are very welcome to join us - it is not exclusive and you do not need to be able to come to all the sessions!!

Our Candlemas party turned out to be a wonderful evening with folk from all three churches represented. Outside it was very cold and by the time we left snow was falling but inside the atmosphere was warm and joyful. Tables were laid simply and effectively and quiz sheets from Dana kept us occupied, if stumped at times! The wonderful and varied contributions to the home-cooked cold buffet were delicious and plentiful and between our main course and desserts young people from the Longborough Opera Youth Chorus entertained with some lovely singing and playing. All in all it was a most enjoyable evening. Thanks must go to Anne, Sarah, Dana and all the other helpers and contributors.
