THE GRAPEVINE – APRIL 2024
This month you can see in our cover picture that spring is beginning to burst out in St James’s Park in London. The first two weeks of April should see it at its best – well worth a trip up to town to have a wander around! In our News of the Church Family page, we celebrate success on the part of the younger generation and a Decade-busting birthday. We have a new ECO page with lots of tips for saving the planet. Messy Church continues to thrive and attract new families. We learn of how our relationship with ArtPeace began, 25 years ago, with a first trip to Zimbabwe by Johnston Simpson. Our links with ArtPeace have gone from strength to strength in terms of closeness to the artists, although, sadly, the situation in Zimbabwe gets more and more difficult as time goes by. Our support for the artists through buying their beautiful sculptures over the years has been and remains life-changing for them and their families. We are planning future exhibitions in The Gateway after Sunday services – Come buy!
