The Reformation Service, held at Bromsgrove Methodist Church on 2 November, went quite well! The generous offering of almost one hundred pounds will go to continued Lutheran outreach in the UK. Approximately twenty-five people were in attendance. Cars came from Cardiff, Cambridge and London (Borehamwood). It was certainly a wonderful thing to be supported by so many Lutherans from so many directions!

One of, if not the most significant event to heighten the visibility of the congregation within the neighbourhood was the fayre that the congregation held on 14 June.

Thanks should go to the many people who made that fayre possible: those at Mt Nod School, those renting the school before our group, those who helped set up the booths, those who helped run those booths, and those who helped clean up. A special thanks should go those who put up several dozen flyers around the neighbourhood. That was probably the main reason for the large number of people who turned up!

The congregation has also had booths at other fayres, and these types of things continue to supply the church with a small amount of income. Would you like to see this continue? Would you like to help? More importantly, can you think of other possible ways to get more income?
