“At the heart of the Christmas story is a vulnerable newborn child. This is the lesson we learn as we come to Bethlehem. To put the needs of the vulnerable first.”

It’s a privilege to be in Rome today for the funeral of His Holiness Pope Francis, as we commend his spirit into the hands of our loving & merciful God. As we mourn with our Roman Catholic sisters & brothers, we give thanks for the life of this faithful servant of Jesus Christ ✝️
No online meeting this Friday morning.
Instead, we met for lunch and to hand over to our new President @RevMaggs
A year of continued work in the community lies ahead! Starting with the AGM of @HulmeCgardenC in the morning!

There was a great afternoon of events at the @MustardTreeMCR today celebrating 30 years of combating poverty.
Such talent in the art exhibition too!

At our recent meeting at @ThePlaceM14 Rotary District Governor, Swati Mukherjee, presented Long Service Awards to Margaret Hutchinson, Rev. Margaret Jones, Jackie Berry and Mike Payne.
Over 100 years of service between them. Amazing!

Breaking News. Something dreadful seems to have happened in Worcester Cathedral: a very large camel (or is it a dromedary?) has driven the Holy Family out of the stable and they are exposed to the elements some distance away - as if life wasn’t difficult enough for them already.
Many thanks @janetteporter Chair of Trustees at @SreepurVillage for your passionate outlining this morning to our breakfast meeting of the work of this great charity.
We support you and urge others to do so including online.
