"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." -- 1 John 1:9 (NKJV)
…Pompocali proved to be a superb site for our No Adults Allowed picnic and the excellent weather added to the fun. Find the missing person, the bean bag scrum, frisbee football and many other games provided the entertainment prior to the rope swing and stream!! “Insufficient time to explore everything” was the only complaint.
A good crowd turned up to begin 2011 in style, avoiding low-flying golf balls, tramping through the mud, helping Molly over styles and gates, watching ducks ice-skate and venturing across the ‘bridge’. Delicious food at Gordon and Clare’s added a perfect finale. Thank you Barry for your excellent leadership once again.
Mini Christmas stockings, fancy bags for presents and beautiful table centre pieces were the crafts on offer to all the ladies who braved the weather to enjoy the Christmas Craft Evening. Delicious desserts were followed by hearing of Adele’s faith in action, especially through the tough times; very thought provoking.
(Please excuse the quality of the photos, I had to use my mobile phone.)
Despite their greatest endeavours the ‘No Adults Allowed’ team were unable to beat the adult teams. A flurry of questions kept everyone alert and ensured the desserts served at the break were much deserved. Aptly named, A1, took the trophy!
‘No Adults Allowed’ displayed their culinary skills on the disposable bbqs before heading off to Soldier’s Field for a game of rugby / football / fighting??
That was back in July, the summer holidays gave time to recover (!) and now they’re eagerly awaiting the new term which begins on 19 September and continues thereafter on every ‘teen’ sunday in each month.
In school years 6 – 9?
This is 4U!
Be there or despair!!
We’re having a picnic and we’d like you and your family to come and enjoy the fun!
Saturday 31 July

Pompocali
Pompocali is an ace place for a picnic consisting of delightful grassy mounds with a stream nearby, and whilst it sounds like it’s in foreign parts it’s actually just on our doorstep – near Scarcroft…
Please contact Kim if you’re interested and to obtain further details.
This time – a less strenuous walk – around Fairburn Ings Nature Reserve.
The intention is to walk to Fairburn village and back taking approx 2 hours. There are reasonable footpaths which are suitable for buggies. As picnic tables are placed outside Fairburn Ings visitors centre it would seem surly not to use them at the end of the walk, perhaps partake of the ice creams/hot drinks that can be purchased and definitely make use of the toilets provided!
We’d be delighted if you and your friends were able to enjoy this with us.
Please contact Gwen if you’re interested and to obtain further details.
The Parochial Hall looked ace full of an amazing array of plants whilst ladies and gentlemen, old and young, a dog and gnomes (!) enjoyed the pleasures of swapping plants, good company and delicious scones with jam and cream.
Thank you David and Margaret for leading us though many a beautiful place in the vicinity of Thorner with a delightful picnic spot en route… …the pictures say it all!
Too many of the same plant and fancy a variety? Bring those you’d like to change to our plant swap…
…Sunday 30 May
