Saltmine Accommodation Request

As mentioned above,  we are going to be having Saltmine Theatre perform here at Bethel on 7th and 8th December.  They will be performing for schools in the afternoons on the Wednesday and Thursday and a morning performance on the Thursday. They will also be having a community performance at 7 pm on Wednesday. We are looking for hosts for them  They would need dinner on Wednesday, overnight accommodation and breakfast on Thursday morning. The team is is made up of two females (Anisha and Elspeth) and a male (Rowmell).  Anisha and Elspeth are happy to share a room but not a bed. 

In terms of feeding people:
Anisha - she eats chicken and fish and vegetarian food but not other meats
Rowmell is allergic to cashew nuts.
Rowmell is also the main driver in the team (they come with a big van!)
If you can let Lorraine in the office know if you might be able to host some or all of the team, it would be greatly appreciated.  Many thanks

 

Family News

We have  to share the news with you that George Turner passed away on Sunday 6th November in hospital. The words "True Gentleman" are often batted around, but we can hardly think of anyone that they apply to more than George. He was a man of real warmth and love, and he will be deeply missed. He was man of deep faith whose hope was rooted in Jesus, in whose presence he now stands, and whose welcoming smile he has now seen. Thank You God for George, and thank You God for Jesus.
