Food and sharing meals has always been an important dimension of our lives as a Church. Over the past year, we have begun to share meals from time to time after the morning service. These events have been well supported - we enjoy the experience and atmosphere of a family meal togther.This Sunday, we're sharing in a pot luck lunch from 12.15. In our time together, we will especially be recognising and celebrating the work of Sandra Polworth, our church secretary for the past 8 years. Sandra has been a vital figure in the life of the congregation providing administrative support for many different ministries, as well as a warm welcome to anyone who ever came to visit. Sandra has now moved on to a new full time post, and together with Iain, they now worship at the Free North Church. Iain is employed by the Free North as a community worker, and is doing some outstanding work supporting individuals and families struggling with drug and alochol addictions. Iain and Sandra came to one of the first alpha courses we ran at Hilton Church around 1996, and it has been wonderful to see the way that God has led them over the years since.
