FAIR DATES. Whilst your diaries are still pristine, I thought I would let you know the dates of the two Trinity Fairs booked for 2012. Due to the Queen's celebrations, the moving of the bank holiday/half term and hopefully so that the cubs and scouts can join us, the "summer" fair will take place on Saturday 26th May from 10.00am to 1.00pm. The "Christmas" Fair will take place on Saturday 10th November from 10.00am to 1.00pm.
WORLD MISSION CONFERENCE 2012. This will take place at Swanwick, Derbyshire from 25th to 27th May. The topic will be "Scaling the Hurdles in Africa" - Hope and Challenge to the Church in 21st Century. Further details and a booking form are on the Faith in Action notice-board. I shall be going.
