Dear friends
Happy new year! I pray you have been able to find space and time to enjoy Christmas, although it seems as though so many households were impacted by the cold / flu bug........

Dear friends
We are approaching the end of Advent, the fourth candle on the Advent ring will be lit on Sunday, and then we have the longest possible time between the 4th Sunday of Advent and Christmas Day - a whole 7 days........

Dear friends
We're halfway through Advent, and our schools are right in the middle of their Christmas services / rehearsals / end of term parties etc!..........

Dear friends
Well, Advent is well and truly underway.......
