Pathfinder Church News: Sept 2023

Summer Highlights: Artistry, Activism, and Belief

* joining in with Greenbelt Festival’s 50th anniversary celebrations

* exploring Northstowe, with biodegradable glitter as we prayed for peace

* painting and re-roofing the Wellbeing Shed in school…

* sharing home-made pizza, and baking bread for a deeply poetic communion

We often say we’re “church, but not as you know it”, and this summer has really felt like that!
