March 2012

The grass has already to grow, so the mower had to be got out of the shed, the battery charged, the fuel line unblocked (!) and then it needed to be started. All this effort to stop the grass from growing under our feet!!

During March we continued to follow our Lent Studies "The way to Freedom" based on a poem by Dietrich Bonhoeffer, every Tuesday.

On 11th March, Dave Tuckett led our morning service on Tear Fund Sunday, followed by a simple lunch. People were invited to contribute the cost of their normal lunch to Tear Fund.

17th March was a Needlework Day.

The Ladies' meeting was a craft session where the ladies made an Easter card.

On Saturday 24th March, we celebrated the 50th wedding anniversary of Brian, our church secretary and Margaret. Their daughter, Alison, had catered for the assembled group of family and friends.

The month ended with a clear up day where we threw away some of the accumulated debris which had out lived its usefulness. Since then, we have already had "Have you seen!??" moments.
