Hello Everybody
Clive has taught me how to blog - so here goes with my first blog!
It's a final reminder that there is a service celebrating Women's World Day of Prayer at St. Margaret's at 11am this Friday 2nd March. The service has been put together by women in Malaysia who are highlighting injustice in their own country and around the world.
All are welcome - even men! If you would like a lift to the service please call me on 76261161.
Welcome to my first blog and have a good week.

We tell Bible stories to the children, by using several methods i.e. very short pieces of drama, the use of overhead acetates, reading from Open the Book, we use puppets and several other ways of getting the story across to the children.
We have been going to the school for five or six years, but may have to stop as we are running short of volunteers.
If you could help us bring the Bible to life for the children please contact Mick.
