25th January is the 250th anniversary of the birth of Robert Burns. We are planning a cafe service that evening in which the songs and poetry of Burns will be celebrated. A great deal of Burn's work was linked to themes which were often very critical of the church and it's hypocricy, a label which is still often cited. We'll look at this and see whether there are any abiding and relevant messages from Burn's work for us in the Church today.We hope that the evening will have a wide appeal to people of all ages, and we are also hoping that the cafe menu that evening will have a Scottish flavour to it. To that end we are asking if you might be able to bake and bring along something with a Scottish theme to share, and we'll supply the Irn Bru and Tea! Wednesday, 7 January 2009
