St Andrew's Islington

We joined with other churches in Islington to mark the 400th anniversary of the KJV Bible by reading it (cover to cover!) on Islington Green this weekend.  We fulfilled our early morning slot through all sorts of weather, rain and shine, but thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!

Please do come join us this Easter – everyone is welcome.

Pancake Party 2011:
Tuesday 8th March 4:30 – 7:30pm @ All Saints Church

The Pancake Party is the biggest family event of the year in the Parish and local families and children are invited to come join us. Throughout the party we’ll have different activities for primary school aged kids, a play area for under 5s and a cafe area for those just wanting a nice sit down and a chat. Oh and of course lots of pancakes to eat.

Throughout the evening we’ll have three different kids activities at three different times:

• 4.30pm Action stations featuring face painting, Wii and crafts.
• 5.30pm The team game challenge where teams battle it out across our challenges.
• 6.30pm And finally we ended with the ever popular bouncy castle.

Come join us for as little or as long as you want!

As we get ready for our harvest festival (3 Oct 2010) we are dedicating a Sunday to learn more about global trade justice, and how we can be more involved in fighting poverty.  We are also starting to collect in tins and non-perishable food for the local projects we support.  Please come and bring what you can!

We took pictures of the 9am and the 10.30am congregations this morning, for our goodbye letters to Bishop Stephen and Archdeacon Lyle. Lovely images, but sad that lots of people were missing – we will do it again some time soon.
