Sing-a-long Choir Concert

27/4/2012

 
Those who had tickets braved the rain to come to our church and listen to our very own Whitacre Choir. They sang songs from the shows and there were plenty of opportunities to sing along. Wedding music was the first section closely followed by an amusing sketch. Then the much wanted songs from the shows and musicals section including solos such as "edelweiss" and "memories." "A spoonful of sugar" was a timely organised cue for the refreshment interval which included tea,coffee and biscuits. The second half contained a mixture of well known songs such as "moon river" and more solos followed, and even a poem, which led into the community signing section at the end which included some songs in rounds. The soloists were especially good and the hilarious three little lambs song making the audience laugh heartily.
We raised £345 which is going towards our fund to makeover the chapel kitchen which needs an upgrade to smarten it up.

Meet the Minister

19/4/2012

 
An opportunity tonight to meet our new minister who will take over from Derek at the end of August. Rev Mike Crockett came and had tea, biscuits and a chat giving us all time to get to know each other and discuss our church and area. A pleasant evening was passed with a good turnout and we hope that Mike and his wife felt welcomed and wanted.

For April we are supporting a local charity This Way Up which supports young people in loss or bereavement. This Way Up exists to support young people who are struggling with life changing events such as the divorce or separation of their parents or the death of someone close.

Click the image here to visit the website and find out more about what the charity does and how it does its valuable work supporting the young people it does.

Come and join us as ever first Thursday in April from 10am onwards for the usual tea, coffee and good company.

Despite the Easter period meaning a number of regular attendees were missing we have still raised £90 to send to "This way up" this month.

    Whitacre Congregation is a vibrant mix of young and old who enjoy meeting for Sunday worship. Do come and join us.
