Our own Steve chairs for Alf Hunt Sunday in Chawton. What a wonderful night!! Thank you so much Alf!!

You can’t go far in these parts without Elderflower tonic or cordial being offered in the local pubs and eateries, and even though these are usually the commercial brand, Elderflower is a native of our woodlands and also has amazing healing properties. It is Good for the reduction of cold and flu symptoms, and very good for controlling blood sugar.

This would be the time to harvest as late May and June the buds are freshly open and the fresh flowers can be used. Small animals like dormice and voles love to snack on the berries also, as do birds.

Elderflowers have been used for thousands of years. Even during the Roman era, ground elder roots were used to make medicinal ointments.

The origin of the name came from the Greek sambuke, for wind instrument, as the twigs, once pith removed, could be made into whistles.

The Elderflower symbolizes endings and rebirth, and the fragrance was always used to ward of evil spirits and bring blessings to the household.

Blessings abound last night and such a good time with our very good friend Alf Hunt, as he came to visit. There was a lot of laughter and such a good energy of spirit around

Alf gave a lovely inspired address touching on Fatherhood and brought some delightful messages. Thank you so much Alf. We just love it when you come to visit!!

Thank you to Steve who chaired us beautifully through the evening with good humour, and to All for readings and prayers. Thank you Julie on music, Miss Carole and two Divine cakes, Food angels, Healers, and everyone who sets up and breaks down.

Prayer of the week.

Please pray for the children. God bless the children. Some in this world are experiencing so much, as their lives become violent and unpredictable.

Calendar up next.

Have a beautiful week!!

Little bird told me, the sun is coming. Keep the faith, take your brolly and say your prayers.

We enjoyed another lovely evening on zoom last night, followed by healing.

Beautiful prayers were given along with beautiful readings as we gathered at the mid week point.

Please continue to pray for the few survivors of D day and all veterans of those years.

Alf Hunt is with us Sunday in Chawton.!!

See you then!!

Jeanette Foote was our Guest Medium last night in Chawton. The evening was chaired by Alison Keogh. We had a lovely evening. Thanks Jeanette!!

Wonderful Wisteria. Through late April and May we have seen this beautiful climber around houses and buildings. She also can be trained to grow up as a tree, and although not native to The UK but hailing from the likes of China, Japan, Korea and The Eastern United States, she has become the quintessential adornment for a lovely English garden.

She was introduced into Britain by John Reeves a Chief Inspector of tea in Canton China, as he was commissioned to bring plants for The Horticultural society in London, and we have been grateful ever since. She comes in the beautiful colours of pink, white, blue and of course that beautiful and stunning purple/mauve.

She has a pretty fragrance and catches the attention of the pollinators, as bees just love her as do other insects, and you might see birds snacking on the buds as they come out in Springtime. (A word to the wise – she can be poisonous to humans and pets alike.)

She symbolizes Love, transformation and the passage of time.

Well we had plenty of Love and hopefully transformation with much laughter last night as our friend Jeanette Foote came to visit as our Medium. Jeanette gave a wonderful address about connection, from human connection to Spirit connection, and gave us much pause for thought. She then brought so many messages, which were full of love for our Church. Thank you so much Jeanette for your hard work. We loved having you!

Thank you to everyone who gave prayers and readings. Thank you again Carole for that lovely cake. Thank you Food Angels Sue and Nerina. Thank you Julie on music, and our Healers standing by and everyone who sets up and breaks down each week.

Prayer of the week.

In light of the D day commemoration last week, may we say prayers of complete healing for the less than 200 veterans of allied combat who are still here. May they have a Peace and a softness with their memories.

Calendar will be up next.

We are still waiting for flaming June. There’s time!!

Have a beautiful week Everyone!!

We shared a lovely evening last night again on zoom. Thank you to Everyone for prayers and readings. Thank you to our Healers who are available after the gathering on zoom, or remotely for those who don’t want to go on zoom or are unable.

Please continue to pray for everyone coming together for a Peace finally in the Middle East.

Jeanette Foote is with us Sunday in Chawton!! We will see you then!!
