We are not holding our coffee mornings during August, but will be back with Saturday morning events in September. There is the opportunity to chat after the Sunday morning services, so we can still keep in touch with each others news.

The coffee morning is held each Saturday between 10:30 and 11:30. We know that you can’t leave your home, so you will have to provide your own coffee/tea and biscuits, but the Team have been using “Zoom” for video chatting and are inviting everyone to join them for a chat. 

All you need is a device with internet, or a smartphone, or even a simple telephone (without the video). The address to use is https://us04web.zoom.us/j/82614318926 

Instructions on how to join one of the sessions using a telephone call the information is on this page

Much of what Chris said challenged our Christian stereotypes of Islam and he gave us a sympathetic picture of the beliefs, practices and spirituality of muslims, whilst not ignoring the significant differences between our two religions and our understanding of God. Chris was speaking from a Christian point of view but was able to help us see the world of faith from an Islamic perspective.  It reminded me of my previous experiences of relating to people of other faiths.  Whilst we might feel uneasy at first, we soon discover how rewarding it is to engage with people who are different from us.  Such encounters don’t threaten our faith, but actually help us think more deeply about what we do believe and why.  It may be a bit of a paradox, but in my experience taking someone else’s faith seriously can strengthen our own.
