Weekly update for 5th/6th July
Thanks to all who worked to make Henley's Fete a success and to all who turned out to support it in sweltering heat! Its another busy weekend this weekend with hopefully better temperatures when Gt Blakenham hold their Doggy Day on Saturday and Pet Service on Sunday and Barham hold their Picnic Band Concert on Saturday evening.Next week we can relax a bit and enjoy a Church Family BBQ with a Bouncy Castle and games for the children - please get your tickets this weekend so that we can get the food ordered. This is a great opportunity for the whole Church across the age range to come together regardless of where you normally worship.
Last weekend Ruth Dennigan, Henley MU joint leader, attended the national MU Leadership Conference in Liverpool, where she received certificates from the Worldwide MU President on behalf of both Henley and Claydon & Barham MU Branches. Both branches have been awarded the Bronze Rise Up Award in recognition of the work they have done in helping to tackle domestic abuse. The diocesan president will present the certificates to both branches at the Musical Evening at Barham Church on 19 September.
Henley MU is leading a Faith At Home project to provide take-home (“doggy”) bags to each family in attendance at each month’s [email protected]. These bags will contain things to do and / or discuss which are related to that month’s [email protected] theme. We’d love you to be involved – this could include: praying for the project, planning and / or producing the content of the bags, assembling the bags… If you would like to get involved in this project, please speak to Ruth or email [email protected].
