What a feast!! The blackberries are out in earnest and everyone is taking advantage. With the amount of apples I was given at Church last night, I have no more excuses, I have to make an apple and blackberry pie…

The brambles have gone wild this year and the blackberry crop looks really good, probably because of all the rain we have had come our way,. Those pretty little white blossoms of early Spring gave way to a green fruit turning red and then to black and ready for all to enjoy. They have a very high antioxidant content and are very good for you..

But beware, according to folklore, Don’t eat them after the 29th September for the devil is said to spit on them, rendering them unfit to eat.. It’s amazing how these stories start.

Last night was our Healing Service in Chawton. What a beautiful evening of readings, prayers, and Rob spoke about different kinds of healing that is needed. The healing took place during the service, and as usual it was a very serene and peaceful evening.

A big chocolate cake welcomed us after the service, from Miss Carole, and tea and coffee was on hand as we took a little extra time to catch up with each other.

Thank you to our hospitality, Lisa on music, our readers, and of course our healers, as well as everyone who washes up, sets up and breaks down each week.

Prayer of the week.

Please pray for our leaders. May they receive healing so that they can make prudent decisions for others in this world.

Calendar up next.

Have a beautiful week. Is there going to be an Indian Summer? We shall see..
