A Meditative Safari – The Sacred Side of Nature – For many people being in the natural world is a very strong way of experiencing deeper and even sacred meanings. This afternoon at 2p.m. in TURNPIKE FIELD, Adrian Leighton will be leading "A MEDITATIVE SAFARI". This will be an opportunity to look at the natural life we find in the Fields and share in the deeper aspects of life that this can reveal to us. All are welcome, no registration necessary, just turn up. Dogs also welcome but on a lead for the time of the walk.

Restart of the monthly Midweek Service at Audlem – Wednesday 3rd August 12 midday
For those who haven't experienced the midweek service (held in the Hall) it is a half hour service – including a couple of hymns, reading (biblical/other) prayers and a message. After the service there is a two course light lunch accompanied by chattering voices! It's a good time to socialise with people, who perhaps you've not spoken with on a Sunday. A plate for donations pays expenses. If you would like to come it would be helpful if you could tell a steward or ring Fran 812038 this helps us with catering. (We have no idea of numbers!)
If transport is an issue, please let us know. Lastly – if anyone at chapel feels they could do some transport please let us know. That would be extremely helpful. Thank you.

He uses the threat of who he leaves the farm to as a lever to get people to do things. He has fallen out with other local farms and is not liked by anyone – not even the animals on his farm!
