Harvest & Big Bake Sunday 6th Oct 2019
We are looking forward to our Harvest Service this Sunday the 6th of October at 10:30am. We will look at Jesus Feeding the 5,000 and think about the contribution we make towards the stewardship our world through art, discussion, drama, & quiet reflection. We will be taking up our dry goods collection for the Northeast Edinburgh Food Bank on Sunday; our collection for Tearfund during the service; & have our Big Bake at the end of the service during brunch! We look forward to seeing you there!
Harvest & Big Bake
In amidst the warm Saturday sunshine was the crunching and smell of autumn leaves. There is something beautiful about Edinburgh as the seasons change, in the dying back of the leaves and trees moving into a state of dormancy, we get such beauty of vivid colours and delicious fruit to eat. Come celebrate God’s creation with us on Sunday 6th October starting at 10:30am and ponder a bit about Tearfund’s theme ‘Less is More.’ At our all-age service this day we will be taking a dry goods collection for the Northeast Edinburgh foodbank, our annual offering for Tearfund, and our annual big bake will occur with the theme ‘5 ingredients or less’ just after the service alongside brunch! Do bring containers if you wish to take baking away. Please see the fliers below for full details.
