The children had a great time making yummy treats at the family afternoon last Saturday.
They had to try the ingredients first to check they were ok!
The next family afternoon is on the 12th March at 2.30pm in the drop in centre at church. Please come and join us for crafts, activites and games!

The search for an organist goes on!
Our thoughts are with Marilyn as she waits to go into a new care home. This is an uncertain time for her but hopefully she will be settled in soon. Phillip is doing fantastic work for us on the organ but any weekends that can be covered by an organist in the local area would be hugely appreciated.
If anyone would be interested in playing our beautiful organ on some (or all!) Sundays then please contact us.
Our new e mail address for all comments and enquiries is [email protected]

Thank you to everyone who contributed a shoe box to the Christmas appeal. They will make a huge difference to children who would otherwise have no presents. Now Santa will bring something for them! Annie and Ben were a huge help gathering the boxes together…..and not peaking!
Christmas, Church, Kirkham URCThank you to John Griffiths for coming to talk to us about the work of Commitment for life in Central America. It was a fascinating talk and demonstrates the need for ongoing community support in these countries. The church will keep this work in our prayers and I will continue to keep the church updated through the newsletter and the website as to the charities work in the region,

Thank you for all the positive feedback we have had regarding the new screens in church. It has been a new way of welcoming people to the church and hopefully will be increasingly used during services. The screens can display welcoming images, hymns and video footage for use with services or for events organised by other parties using the church.

Happy New Year!!
Although Christmas is behind us (Nathan was asking me at the weekend while our tree was still up!) the boys were telling me this week how much they enjoyed the Christingle services they went to at Treales and Kirkham, so I thought I would keep Christmas going just a little bit longer and post a couple of photos from the service,
All the best for the new year

Harvest time again. Time to bring in the produce!
Thanks to all that helped with the harvest festival. This year we had a wartime harvest theme and the children had a great time looking at the old farming equipment…..complete with plough!
