Congratulations to Reverend Bernard Fidder on his calling to the joint pastorate of St Andrew’s URC, Canterbury and Sandwich URC. The ordination takes place in September 2018 and some of the Christ Church Congregation will be travelling to take part in the service, as well as looking forward to seeing both Bernard and Ada. Many of you will remember Ada from her work serving in the cafe on Tuesdays (inbetween her eco work, including Kent Amphibians Group), Bernard from his initial training year here and his Prayer days and other training events as the Spiritual Development Officer for WKESSA. Both Bernard and Ada have worked together through Dunamis, including arranging courses at Ashburnham Lodge.
We ask for many more blessings on them as they settle into their new life, new job and new home.

Apologies to all our regulars but LifeSprings Cafe is CLOSED throughout August, due to volunteer holidays. We look forward to seeing everyone in September!
