This'n'that
This Sunday also sees the dedication of Abigail Wilson. It'll be great to have Abigail's family and friends here with us for the meeting and a lunchtime buffet.
Some elderly householders in Mumbles have been approached by a well-spoken, well-dressed boy of about 10-12, who asked them to sponsor him in aid of West Cross Fellowship.
Neither we nor West Cross Community Church collect money door-to-door. If we ever did, we would not send young people alone and without ID.
Please tell this to as many people as you can!
Rachel and Jared are off to Goa next. Follow their adventures by reading their blog (see link on right).
Next Saturday, (3rd February), the Run of Perseverance for Iraq happens . Leaving at 10 am from Phil's house, a group of runners will be heading for the Cenotaph in Brynmill, stopping every mile along the way to pray about the situation in Iraq. If you'd like to join in, call the Linden office on 403777.
If you've got young children, take them to the Parents’ Morning at Red café on Tuesdays from 10 am till 12 noon. Meet and talk with other parents while the children play in a child-safe environment.
Sammy Horner, Celtic rock musician, is appearing at Zac’s Place on Sunday, 11th February. The latest piece of commissioned art on the theme of the Beatitudes, a poem by Stewart Henderson, will also be unveiled. All welcome.

The Dynamic Duet
On Sunday Chris and Al (again) continue with the 'one another' theme, this week looking at hospitability. Don't they make a lovely pair?
They are available for hire (for children's parties, weddings and bungee jumping).

Happy New Year!
A belated blog start to the New Year here at Linden.
First of all, big congratulations to Chris and Carol on their engagement! See what going to Hong Kong does for you?
Over the first two months of this year we're going to be looking at ' ... one another.' Last Sunday Chris spoke about encouraging one another; next Sunday, he and Alun are asking us, 'Can you hear it?' when they talk about harmony.
We're also having a number (3) of special meetings to look at what's good and what needs improving about Linden. The first one was last night.
The turn-out was amazing, and many and varied opinions were expressed. Linden's strengths were seen to be its relaxed style, the way people are accepted for who they, its creativity, the family; in typical Linden-fashion though, its strength in being laidback was also seen as a possible weakness.
There are two more meetings when some of the issues raised will be looked at in more detail. Sunday, 21st January, at 7.00 pm and Monday,12th February, at 8.00 pm
