WELCOME TO
OUR CAROLS PICNIC
There is a popular Christmas song written in 1963 called “It’s the most wonderful time of the year”
It is such a good title because this IS a precious time that allows us to slow down a little.
It’s a time to reflect and connect.
Time to reflect on what our Lord Jesus did, over 2000 years ago.
Time to reflect on the real priorities of life.
And then of course, time to connect – to connect with beautiful family and treasured friends.
We trust your time with us, at our Carols Picnic, helps you do just that – enjoy some beautiful time under the
incredible African night sky, to reflect… and to connect!
God bless you at this, the most wonderful time of the year!
