Jesus of Montreal

Our next film will be Jesus of Montreal - I must confess that I haven't seen it yet, but I have heard amazing things about it, it has a very SofaChurch philosophy apparently. It is an 18 and is in French with subtitles, just to warn you.

Money discipleship task - write a household budget

Make a household budget (not including absolute amounts of money, but percentages).

On Thursday 19th March Nan Watson will be leading a little workshop on budgeting. Nan gives financial advice at the Citizen's Advice Bureau.

Potatoes

Here's a complete list of all of the things I've grown in my life:

1. Cress on cotton wool in Primary school

Percy Thrower I am not. But I decided to set myself a challenge today to grow some new potatoes. So I've bought some seed potatoes, dug in some compost and planted a few.

If anyone else would like to join me on this agricultural odyssey I'd appreciate the company! I have some spare seed potatoes I'll bring along on Thursday that anyone can have. I am clearly no expert, but I think you just need a smallish patch of soil or a pot. Maybe a nearby roundabout? Dig in! (sorry)

Chewing Over the Credit Crunch

Our next session of cafechurch is on Thursday 12 March 2009 at Tesco's Costa Coffee. We will be exploring together the impact of the current financial crisis on our lives. The 'expert witness' for the evening will be Joe Watson from Crewe's Credit Union.

First drinks will be on sale at 6.45pm and last drinks at 8pm.

This is a very salient topic at the moment, as many of us are being affected by it. It may also be a popular talking point at work, with neighbours and also friends. So why not bring them along!!!

Hope to see you there!
