One week into official summertime, and all of summer is in full swing. The temperatures have been sizzling, and we cannot complain. Even the marsh frogs are trying to cool off in their ponds. He is not native to the UK but was introduced during the 1930s to the Walland Marsh in Kent, and has become very established within the South East. Larger than most frogs, he can be very acrobatic and also very shy and hard to spot, being wary of humans. He is active day and night, and very vocal with his loud laughing call, but will stop immediately with movement nearby that he considers threatening. He is associated with healing and wisdom.

Well, he and his pals quietened down very quickly on Saturday in their pond at ‘Eden’, as we began to gather for our annual Garden Party. Usually, we pray for good weather and no rain, but there wasn’t a cloud in the sky as we sheltered from the sun. It was a glorious afternoon of laughter and chatter as some hard-working souls ran back and forth with tea, Pimms, sandwiches, scones, and more, and we sat enjoying each other and the beautiful garden. The annual fun auction was also a great success!. Thanks to Rob and Sue, Chris Shore, Chris Elliot, and Carole, amongst others, who made the afternoon so lovely for everyone!

We then rolled into Sunday, enjoying Eve Cowell, our visiting medium at our evening gathering, and we had a lovely time!! Thank you so much, Eve, for your thoughts and bringing such lovely messages for us!! Thank you to the family for our readings and prayers. Thank you, hospitality, music team, and of course, our healers. And we never forget the set-up and break-down each week!!

Thank you, Everyone. Just a wonderful weekend all around.

Calendar up next.

Have a beautiful week!!

Hydrate and don’t forget the animals and plants!!

It is that time when we know we are fully into Autumn, as the Pumpkins are doing more than making an appearance. They are everywhere, whether real or decoration, and definitely get us into the Harvest/Autumnal feel. We spied one at Church last night, beautifully carved.

Pumpkins are fairly easy to grow, requiring a little shelter but plenty of sun. They were introduced to Tudor England in the sixteenth century by The French. They are native to North America and have been grown there for at least five thousand years. The Native Americans used strips of pumpkin to make mats. This colourful vegetable is full of Vit A, B, potassium and protein, and so oh so good for you! Their Spiritual symbolism is one of Harvest and Abundance. No surprises there.

There was an abundance of Spirit and good feeling last night with the high energy, as we welcomed Virginia Gordon who has been part of our family for some time. We had lovely thoughts shared by her and then she brought the messages. Well done Virginia!. It was a truly lovely evening!! Steve chaired the evening with his usual humour, as we heard beautiful prayers and readings. Thank you for music, cake – coffee and walnut no less, and healers standing by after the service. Thanks to all those who diligently set up and break down the evening each and every week!

Prayer for the week.

Please pray for Peace in this world. The world sorely needs it.

Calendar up next!

Have a beautiful Autumnal week!!

The reason British folk talk so much about the weather is because it is literally an ever changing canvas.. Over the weekend, we had some quite heavy fog in these parts, and were half expecting snow. It certainly was cold enough for it. Fog is basically the clouds ‘touching the ground’ at a low altitude, and reducing visibility to less than 1 km, as opposed to mist, that does not reduce visibility to that distance, so mist is a ‘lighter’ cloud in layman’s terms..

The otherworldly mystical appearance has given much inspiration for quotes, poems and songs through the centuries, and sun or moonlight shining through lends itself especially to a vision both magical and beautiful.

Well our Christmas Healing gathering last night was just that – beautiful, and also gentle and serene with some lovely hymns. Thank you to our readers who set the tone. Thank you to Julie on music, Food Angel Sue. Thank you Healers for bringing the healing through during the service.

Calendar will be up next.

Have a beautiful week!! You never know what you are going to get with the weather. ‘Life is like a box of chocolates’
