No Open House on Sundays in July

Hello Friends,

On Sunday, 28th June, ‘OPEN-HOUSE’ meets in the Emmanuel Church
‘Lounge’ from 2.00 pm until 4.00 pm (14.00 - 16.00).

After OPEN-HOUSE, you are all invited, at 4pm, to listen to the ‘Children’s
Choir Concert’
in Emmanuel Church – this will be followed at 5pm with a ‘bring-your-own’ Picnic outside on the grass. What a lovely way to end the month!

Please remember –
during JULY there will not be any Sunday afaternoon meetings of ‘OPEN-HOUSE’but keep in touch because we hope to organise other events during the month.
Sunday afternoon meetings will begin again in August.

Its always good to hear from old friends who have returned to their far-away homes! Both our 2 friends have recently e-mailed us; they are well and adjusting to busy lives in China. Our thoughts and prayers are also with other old friends who live in more troubled
parts of the world, and we trust they will know security and peace in the midst of social and political upheaval.

May you all know God’s blessing,

Clive

Come to Open House before/after Centenary Open Day

Hello Friends,

On Sunday, 14th June, ‘OPEN-HOUSE’ will meet in the Emmanuel Church ‘Lounge’ from 2.00 pm until 4.00 pm (14.00 - 16.00). Sunday is also the University’s Centenary Open Day, from 12pm until 5pm – so there’s plenty of time to come to ‘Open-House’ for a cup of tea and to meet your friends!

Summer is the season when many of you will be traveling on holiday. As in every other country in the world, please take care of your security! Never put cameras, passports, cards, tickets or money into a backpack – thieves and pickpockets are capable of stealing your possessions out of a backpack, and you will not even feel them. Be discreet with valuables, and keep them where you can see them, or in a secure waist-bag in front of you. If ever you feel threatened always find a policeman – they are there to help you.

May you all know God’s blessing,

Clive
