First, a huge thank you to Kerry and Ashley and the team of helpers and contributors that made last weekend's Christmas Market possible. It was such a happy day and we're delighted with the funds raised in support of our various mission projects (unofficial figures place the total at just over R20 000).

Then, a couple of dates for your diary as Christmas rushes towards us: our evening service on 22nd December will be a carols service (18h30) and on the following night (also at 18h30) our Blue Christmas service will take place.

Last, we're so looking forward to being all together this Sunday as we reflect on the year that has been and look forward to 2025. One of the significant changes in the new year will be in our office staff team as Laura Heale leaves to prepare to relocate to the UK next year. Laura has been such a key member of the team here at WMC for many years - we will miss her! Join us for tea on Sunday after the combined service to bid her farewell.
