With Tim Lawrence, a reflection on consumerism and grace in nature as taught by Christ, together with pumpkin soup and hot apple juice. Ends 4.30pm.
On Dundry View Community Allotment – found off Speedwell Rd between Plummers Hill and Cecil Ave, down a little lane, which will be near Tim’s bright yellow van. The gate to the allotments is at the end of this 50m lane. Climb over the gate and walk straight ahead and then through the gap (tractor size) in the hedge to get into the community allotment (look for the bay tree).
And to say that Laurie MacIntyre is visiting Bristol and would like to meet EarthAbbey people on Monday 16th November in the morning. He leads a church community in Australia that has recently re-imagined itself as an Abbey.
