This Sunday – Harvest Sunday 28th April

This Sunday is Harvest Sunday for us at TUC – a time to offer gratitude for what which we are gifted from the earth, and an opportunity to mark the changing season.

We would love you to:

  • Bring something from your garden – not only produce, but flowers or greenery – anything from your patch which we can add to our alter space during the service.
  • Bring some non-perishable food we can add our food pantry – helping us stock our cupboards for the coming winter period.

 

A new addition to our celebration of Harvest this year, will be a soup and rolls lunch. It is a nice time of year to gather at the start of a new term and a new season, and begin the journey inwards. Barb and Sue will be making this happen and are hoping soup makers in our midst would be prepared to offer a soup for lunch.

Evolving Faith Discussion Series

We are seeking interest in whether people would be keen on a 5 week discussion series on Tuesday Nights in May/June.

It will be a chance to unearth and explore the questions we have around some of the foundational aspects of Christian faith; including grappling with questions like;

  • How are we to respond to other faiths – and are there other ways to God?
  • How are we to approach these ancient scriptures in light of life today?
  • Do we need saving … and if so, from what and to what?
  • What does a faith engaged in the world look like?

There would be an accompanying podcast to listen to during the week (as bonus stimulus), but primarily it will a chance to learn more and to hear more from each other.

If you want to get a sense of the direction of the series and the content we’ll be discussion, you can listen to the podcast here and the first episode (link here) will be a good primer to get a sense of the kind of content we’ll be discussion.

A sign up sheet is at the back of the church or an online version is here.
Speak to Matt if you have questions
