Many of us joined the Big Garden Birdwatch at the weekend, including the young people at Forest Church who saw pigeons, robins, crows and a woodpecker as well as kites overhead.

A couple of congregation members also headed over to Newtown Community Garden where there was birdbox building, bulb planting and more - see their Facebook Page for some great photos.

The Letter: A Message for our Earth

Before Christmas, a couple of members of our EcoChurch team watched The Letter: A Message for our Earth. It is the story of Pope Francis's Laudato Si' encyclical and some of the many many people who are acting on the issues it raises. 

They were so impressed they suggested we invite home groups and any other congregation members to join us to watch it together at church.  This will be happening this Thursday, 2nd February at 7.30 - all are welcome to join us and refreshments will be available.
