From the Dean

The Dean is looking for someone to video record the Faith lectures on

Sunday Evening, Feb 26 commencing at 7 p.m. and the next day at 10

a.m. We have a good quality camera which is simple to use. The

challenge is simply to watch over the equipment and make basic

changes as required. If you are interested and able please speak with

the Dean.

The Dean initiated a song-writing challenge last Sunday. He is inviting

budding poets and song-writers to get busy and write something

suitable for use during Easter Season. He has already received four

submissions and is working on a piece himself.

Please indicate your interest to him as soon as possible. We will likely

host a writer’s workshop during Lent and have an evening of song

drawing in part on the music of Gordon Light. Stay tuned (pun

intended).

Soup Needed

The basement freezer is ALMOST EMPTY. This is a call out for our

wonderful soup makers to please bring me some more! There are lots

of containers in the bins in the kitchen. Don’t want to make soup? You

can cup up lasagne or whatever you want! They particularly like Beef

Stroganoff at the moment.

Thanks in advance
