Sellotape sculpture, rescheduled to 29th April

The idea is you wrap cling film around an object, then layers of sellotape. When ready you can cut away the tape layer, making a translucent shell that you can put fairly lights in. Come and have a try - please bring a big roll of tape and an object to be your mould.

Divided we fall? :: The Bible, 6th May

Hi everyone,

We'd like to invite you to our second monthly gathering, on Thursday 6th June at the Duke of Gloucester.

We want to create a place for Christians from all churches (or none) in the area to meet up and socialise while discussing some of the really thorny issues of the faith in a friendly way. If you'd like to come then we'd love to see you at 8pm, either tomorrow or another week - it will be on the first Thursday of each month.

We are continuing our series titled Divided we fall? which explores the issues that Christians often fall out over. This time its the turn of the Bible - is it God's inspired word, or is it something quite different?

There won't be a talk or anything like a sermon, but we'll provide a sheet of thought-provoking quotes and scriptures to help get conversations flowing. I've attached the quotes to this email so you can have a look beforehand, or if you can't come but are interested anyway! There should be something in there that you can agree with and disagree with; let's unravel it together.

Here are the topics that we'll be covering in future events up to the summer:

June 3rd :: Evolution
July 1st :: Sexuality

What would Jesus vote?

Right? Left? Centre? Green? BNP (who claim him as a supporter, bizarrely)? Would he just spoil his ballot paper in protest? Come and discuss with us this Thursday.
