The Big Bridgemere Charity Quiz – November 21st 6pm
You are invited to a ‘Quiz & Supper’ evening at the Bridgemere Centre – 6 to 8:30 pm on 21st November. This will be a great opportunity to get together, for an evening’s entertainment with a simple meal included. The quiz will involve teams of up to four – but no need to organise a team ahead of the evening unless you want to. (More than 4? You can have more than one team. There will be a prize for the highest scoring team and for the runner-up, but the emphasis is mostly on having an enjoyable evening! Click here to reserve a place for yourself or your team. (Children who will be ‘in the team’ are welcome but there will be no other provision for them at this event.)
With Christmas coming up, such a challenging time financially for so many people, we are hoping that this event will help raise funds for Eastbourne Foodbank. To that end, we are asking for a minimum suggested donation of £5 per person. Hopefully you’ll agree that’s a bargain! (Vegan and Gluten F ree will be catered for.)
There are only 50 places available for this event and it has to be first come first served, so if you’re interested do book your place as soon as possible.

The Fingerprints of God – Medicine and Healing
Wisdom can help us lead healthier more resilient lives. Herbs and plants, noted in several passages, help restore our bodies. And God also brings about supernatural healing. Dave Roberts helps us explore these 3 fingerprints of God.
The Fingerprints of God – The Witness of Nature
One of the ways that we can see the work of God around us is noted and rooted in the belief that God created all that we see around us in the natural world. This in turn speaks to us of his beauty and his character. Join Sharon Roberts as she explores this and helps us understand what it means for us now.
