Fun in the Sun

The link to this week's live-streamed service is  here.

Thanks to Janet for this week's blog.

School's out and summer is here but we (SPPC) don’t close down and go on holiday. 
We even met a new friend all the way from Luxembourg! Win, Eileen’s sister who is visiting for a little time joined us along with Eileen’s daughter, Pamela.

So, what better way than to spend the day than playing a round of mini golf and having lunch with friends? That's what happened on Thursday, 13^th July 2023.

 On a beautiful sunny day, eleven of the us got together at Island View Mini Golf.

We split into 2 groups to play but we just played for fun, no score cards.

However, Barbara, Abigail and Janet all got a ‘hole in one’ in team 2!

It took 2 hours to play 18 holes with lots of laughs along the way.

This was followed by lunch at White Spot where we were joined with Pam, Elizabeth and Norma.

What a happy time we all had, the sun was shining, blue sky above and just a joy to be out in God’s creation and to spend time together with friends.

Next year, why not join us, you’ll be glad you did!

Want to know more about us at SPPC? Then join us on Sunday mornings @10:00 am for worship and then for a time of fellowship following the service, we’d love to meet you!

 

To God who makes all lovely things, how happy must our praises be, Each day a new surprise He brings, to make us glad His world to see.

He made the people that I meet, the many people great and small,
In home and school, and down the street, and He made me to love                                                 them all.

Speaking of fun in the sun, the Thursday morning Friendship Coffee in the rose garden in Sidney, was another opportunity for spending time with friends. The weather and the roses made this a special time.

Finally, if you like your fellowship time with a side of music, come to the church on Saturday evening, 7:00 pm for an orchestral concert.

July 29 String Quartets Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven

The quartet concerts draw on Haydn's set of six quartets, Opus 50, which he wrote in response to six quartets Mozart sent to him. Beethoven's Opus 18 quartets were his effort to establish himself against Mozart and Haydn as the heir to their chamber music dominance.

Admission is by donation with a portion of the proceeds going to the Sidney/Lions Food bank.

Lots of free parking.
