LENT LUNCHES

Lent lunches continue through March and are on Fridays (1st, 8th, 15th, 22nd) from 12 noon in the Oxnam Room. There is soup, roll and butter and a pudding, all for only £3.50, and we have a takeaway service as well. The lunches are all provided by volunteers drawn from the Anglican and Methodist churches. 

 

EASTER

The Christian faith stands, or falls, on the resurrection –either we have a Living Lord who has mastery over sin and over death or we had best shut up shop without more ado. Whatever may be our personal reaction to Matthew’s account of the earthquake, the angel and the empty tomb, (Matthew 28:1-10), the inescapable evidence of the resurrection is the new life that came to broken and dispirited disciples; the renewal that has come has come again and again when the church has looked moribund and finished; we worship a Lord who meets us in the daily business of living, to renew our life and who will bring yet another resurrection in his church when we are really ready to let Him have his way with us.

ST NEWLINA’S FEAST WEEKEND (REMINDER)

This year, following the success of last year’s wedding dress display, the parish church would like to put on a display of photos taken in and around St Newlyn East over the past 60 years.

If you have anything you think people would like to see and remember from the past please contact Linda Angove on  510778
