Annual Treasure Hunt
This will be held as usual on May Day evening which this year is on Monday
May 3rd and will depart as usual from outside Church House from 6.15pm
onwards to allow some space between the cars.
Make up a car load and come and try to crack the clues. I understand that
there will be less driving and jumping in and out of cars but more walking
and so it should be suitable for more people. The entry fee will probably
be £1 per person to cover the cost of prizes etc. This is open to any
Bingham residents. If you are alone but would still like to take part then
do come along – there may be a seat available in one of the cars.
Ascension Day
This is the next festival in the Christian calendar and this year it will
be on Thursday May 13th. It will be celebrated at the usual Thursday Communion
service, but enhanced with several hymns for the season. Coffee and a chat,
of course, will follow. Do make a special effort to be there.
Whit Sunday or Pentecost
This is the day when the Holy Spirit descended on the Apostles and they received
the courage to go out into the streets and to speak of the wondrous deeds
that Jesus had done. They also received the gift of different languages so
that all who were in Jerusalem could understand them.
We shall celebrate this major festival on Sunday May 23rd and would love
to see many of you in church that day. Service times will be as usual and
are printed elsewhere in Butter Cross.
