Enjoy a movie for beans!

You are warmly invited to a night of movie-watching and popcorn munching for the price of a can of beans!  Or a can of spaghetti, or of meat, or of fruit, or well anything!  

This Saturday at 7pm we are having a movie night in the upstairs lounge with snacks and drinks provided, and as usual we are not charging for the event, but if you would like to come we would ask that you would bring at least one can of tinned goods for the Basics Bank run by the West Pilton Christian Centre.

 The Basics Bank is an initiative which makes basic food and toiletries for those who for whatever reason find themselves in need of short term support.  Perhaps someone in the family has lost the job or their benefits has not come on time, whatever the reason, once they are referred to the Basics Bank, the team will do their best to provide them with what they need.  Of course they can only provide the basics if others donate them – that’s where we come in!  To view a full list of items currently requested by the Basics Bank click on this link.

Happy New Year!

.... Try not to start your new year like this ....

Hi all,
I keep saying it to everyone I meet for the first time this year, but it doesn’t get tired – Happy New Year!  Whatever 2010 held for you – joy or frustration, success or failure, pleasure or pain – may  you find that God has infinitely greater things for you in 2011 and beyond!
I have just two resolutions this year:
1.  Be more reliable
2.  Bring back the Bowler Hat (which is the epitome of reliability, as well as the height of 18th Century work-a-day fashionability.)
With that in mind, I present a punctual and on time blog about the first it club Friday of 2011!
Read on…

…. and may God bless you in the New Year,
Matt
