Worship night & much else besides

It's been a busy few days at St James's.....

Sunday night and the church rocked with the Worship Night (left), organised by Fernando and Tim who are working locally with the London City Mission.

I think it was the loudest worship band I have ever heard (or am I just getting old?) but it was great to see the church packed with young people, praising the Lord and hearing his word.

A much calmer atmosphere prevailled the previous day when the ladies of the parish sat down for their latest Women's Breakfast, with Jenny Deeprose (right), the 'Cheese Lady' from Redhill, for an intriguing cheese-themed talk, that included not only samples of various cheeses, but references to cheese in the Bible, Jenny's work as a cheese judge, and the story of her own spiritual journey. Excellent.

Meanwhile this morning, it was the first day of term at St James's School, and the children poured into church for their beginning of term the rigours of the coming term.

Welcome back everybody and have a great term.
