News and Events for the week beginning 27th May

Bolivia Night

A great date for your diary… This coming Saturday night 1st June... we’re having a night to enjoy everything Bolivian! We’re going to meet in the church for a night of Bolivian food, music, trivia and culture, plus an opportunity to find out more about our missionaries the Lovells.

The event starts at 6pm and is planned to finish by 8pm, so families with younger kids can get home in time to put the kids to bed. If you’re coming, see Phil or Coralie Pratt to find out what food to bring. Don’t forget to wear the Bolivian colours!
