The Beacon - Progress Update!
Thank you to all those who have donated. Together with your generous gifts, grants from Baptist Building CIO and Benefact Trust, and assistance from Caledonian Collective, we have made a good start to our renovations! The new windows are in, the rear door is due to be installed in early July, every surface inside has been painted at least once, and a start has been made to garden works. Still outstanding - kitchen installation, flooring, further garden work, external painting, furnishing/equipping. We have funds to make a start to the outstanding list but still require further help to finish. Pending funding, we hope to be ready to open to the community later this summer! If you would like to contribute to this goal you can donate via our JustGiving page: https://www.justgiving.com/campaign/the-beacon-community-hub

Some of our members braved the rain this evening singing some Carols outside the Co-op. Spirits where high despite the soggy Carol sheets.

More festive fun to come with our all age service on Sunday morning (10:30am) and then our Christmas eve Carols and Nativity service (4pm on the 24th Dec) both in the Mclintock Hall, hope to see you there!
