Chapel Garden
You may well have heard of "Messy Church" well here at AMC we have a variant, ours is – "Messy Garden"!
We have all enjoyed the tulips over the last few weeks but now they are coming to an end. Hopefully a lot of them will flower next spring but to give them the best chance we now have to wait for all the greenery to die down so that the bulbs can build up a store of energy (?) in readiness for next spring.
To keep the upkeep to a minimum we are putting in some groundcover flowering plant plugs. The eagle eyed amongst you may be able to spot the mini plants in between the tulips. Eventually all the tulip greenery will "brown off" which we can then remove and hopefully the plugs will colonise the area. So sorry for the mess but its nature taking its course!

Following the success of the live streaming, you will now be able to watch previous services at your leisure! Head over to the AMC website, www.audlemmethodistchurch.org.uk, click on the link 'Previous Services' at the top of the page and it will take you to the latest streamed service.
