Sunday 28th February 10.30 – 11:30 am Sunday Gathering on Zoom and in the Church
Join us for our weekly worship service. This week’s theme is ‘Wilderness’, led by Tom Grimshaw who will be leading the service from the church. All welcome.
Tom will lead the service based on these sayings:
“We are all travellers in the wilderness of this world, and the best we can find in our travels is an honest friend” – Robert Louis Stevenson.
“Generally speaking, a howling wilderness does not howl; it is the imagination of the traveller that does the howling” – Henry David Thoreau
Although some our worship leaders will be leading services on Zoom from home, there are 14 places available in the church for anyone who would like to come and watch/listen to the service there.
Please contact Linda at admin@chorltonunitarians.org to book your place, or reply to this email.
