PAUSE FOR THOUGHT
From the Reverend Angela Hannafin
Happy New Year to you!
I hope that by the time you read this, you will be stepping into 2020 and all that it brings.
Yet January always seems to be a strange month to me to be embracing new things. We are in the throes of winter and it seems odd to think ahead, when the days are still so short. Often all we want to do is hole up with a boxset and reach for the mince pies and whatever fare remains.
Whilst the natural world is still sleeping though, the Churches Together team have been working hard on new things. We are putting on a “Start” course, beginning in January.
The church really helps me put life in perspective, particularly when I've had a challenging week.
