Dates for your diary A WORSHIP CONSULTATION MEETING - an open forum to receive and process feedback regarding worship in our church, has been arranged for Monday 15 October at 7.30pm in the Wesley Room. Hope you can make it. FELLOWSHIP LUNCH - Many thanks to all those who joined us for the September Fellowship Lunch. Special thanks go to those who made soups or helped out on the day. Generous donations of £81.21 were collected and will go towards outreach within worship. The next Fellowship Lunch will be held following the 10.30am service on Sunday 21 October. Money collected during this lunch will go to the charity Teach Us Too. This is a charity set up by a 12-year-old boy who has cerebral palsy. We look forward to learning more about it at the next lunch.

I have booked a planning meeting on Tuesday 9 October 10.30am in the Lounge. If anyone has any theme ideas, please let me know - perhaps we can plan themes and dates for the next few Messy Church events. Please let me know if you can help out in anyway either beforehand or on the day. Messy Church is a fantastic outreach and I know that it wouldn't be possible without the great team that we have at DMC, so thank you for all that you do to make it happen!
