Plant Swap

Plant Swap

On Saturday 10 May we are hosting a Plant Swap from 10am to 12pm in St Michael’s Centre. It’s running at the same time as the Repair Cafe and will be in the Lower Hall.

A great opportunity to share any surplus plants with others and swap for something different or buy plants, for a small donation, if you don’t have any to swap. If you have grown too many seedlings or have divisions of plants then bring them along to share with others.

It’s a fantastic opportunity to share surplus plants and pick up new plants. We ask for a small voluntary donations if you don’t bring any plants to swap. All proceeds will be donated to North Bristol & South Gloucestershire Foodbank.

If you have grown too many seedlings or have divisions/cuttings of plants or self-sown seedlings, then bring them along to share with others.

All plants welcome: Tomatoes, Veg, Flowers, Herbs, Houseplants etc.

Please label plants and bring them in single containers ready for people to take away. 

If you have plants to share, or if you would like more information, please contact Rebecca Bishop via the office, or just bring along your plants on the morning.

The Gifts of Mindfulness for Silent Prayer

The Gifts of Mindfulness for Silent Prayer

Saturday 10 May

Our culture can seem very noisy and busy sometimes, pushing us towards endless activity as if it is not enough simply to be here, to appreciate the beauty all round us and to offer love and kindness.

Using examples from the Bible of how Jesus lived in desert places and alone in the hills, together with guided mindfulness practices and reflections, this one day workshop explores how we can make more space for God in our lives. 

This one-day workshop is on Saturday 10 May from 10am to 4.15pm and tickets are £20. Spaces are limited and must be booked in advance. Click here to book

Please bring your own packed lunch, refreshments will be provided.

This is our 4th day led by Tim Stead at St Michael’s Church, Stoke Gifford. Tim has been an ordained Anglican priest for 20 years in the Oxford diocese. He is currently a freelance mindfulness teacher and writer having trained with the Oxford Mindfulness Foundation. He has written several books, as well as running 8 week mindfulness courses and training for healthcare professionals:www.timsteadmindfulness.org
