Still in good heart.


There have been many times over the last few months when it has seemed that we at KH have undertaken an almost hopeless task.
It is now 10 months since the Storm which started this train of events, and another winter approaches. The roof is still not fixed, the window is out and the entrance hall has had plaster removed. ----- But that could actually be a good thing. It shows that we are still here and progressing our planned course of repairs.
The funding is difficult, especially now with the "Credit Crunch" and "Economic downturn", but we never did think it would be easy.

So I think we just have to realise how fortunate, we as a congregation have been, to have had the "big windows" to ourselves for so long and to have had the music from the Willis Organ.
We still do have them; they are just more precious for their temporary absence.

Firstly, many thanks to those who turned out and contributed their time and energy, and special thanks to Ann Shill for the yummy sandwiches. Our youngest labourer took great delight in sowing the seeds of the Wildflower Meadow, showing great interest in the different sizes and colours of seed, while Mum raked and prepared the ground! Office-bound workers enjoyed their blisters (I hope) proof of their hard work - and a chance for my new First Aid Kit to be used. And what was very pleasant was being able to actually do a little proper gardening apart from just the hard work of cutting grass and hedges! New gardeners were surprised at just how extensive the grounds actually are. Alas; because of Parked c...
