This is a photographic exhibition and collection of stories about forgiveness. We are privileged that it is coming to Quinton during Holy Week 2008. As it will be widely advertised in local media, we hope to see many visitors and consequently, stewards will be required to assist them. Please offer your services, as usual. For more information about this initiative, see our dedicated web site as well as the national web site for the Forgiveness Project. Read the Press Release for more information.
Decided! The theme for this year's calendar will be Midlands Magic. The competition will form part of the Arts and Crafts Festival in May. The twelve winning photos will be made into a calendar for 2009. Photos should be A5/6" x 8" in size and either portrait or landscape. We look forward to seeing many photos.
Church Project - The Fireside Charity
For 2007/2008 we are supporting The Fireside Charity, who provide a welcoming and supportive environment for the homeless. Please read more about them on their web site.
