I thought that title would get your attention – let me explain! In February, Ms. Hardy, a woman barrister, bemoaned the ‘stag do’ behaviour of her colleagues in a Times article. March celebrates the lifting of a prohibition on married women working as teachers. A law only repealed in 1944! It’s also the 25th anniversary […]

At our Pumpkin Heroes event this week over 25 children joined our pumpkin party. We talked about how we can bring our light to others in our communities. We had lots of pumpkin games, activities & crafts and watched a story about Patch the Pumpkin. Thank you to everyone who came along (including all the […]
During our Harvest celebrations we recently had the privilege of catching up with past members whom God is using elsewhere around the country.
