Melville Koppie Eucharist: 9:30 am Sunday May 7
On May 8, 1213, St Francis was given the mountain of La Verna, on which he built his monastery, as a gift by Count Orlando of Chiusi. The EcoGroup thought that the 7th would be an appropriate day on which to hold a “mountain” Eucharist, on our Koppie. There will be a 7:30 am service as usual at the church, but no 9:30 am service at the church. It will be on the Koppie.
* Park and meet in the carpark at Marks Park at 09h15 on Sunday morning off Judith Rd
* The group will enter the Koppies through a gate opposite the Marks Park entrance at 09h30, and will be lead to the selected spot
* A simple Eucharist will be celebrated in the natural surroundings, and should be over before 11h00
* We shall then return to the car park via a slightly different route; back to cars by 11h30
* The Offering we take will go to the Melville Koppies Nature Reserve to support their work so please give generously
Soup Kitchen:
Winter is coming and our soup kitchen is starting up again on 2nd May. We need volunteers to sign up for soup kitchen duties on the roster. Sign-up forms are at the back of the church. Please be sure to respond with generosity of time and donations of dried foods or cans to make the soup more nourishing.
