Barnsley M.B.C. has the slogan ‘Love Where You Live’, which seems to us here at GPCC to be an accurate reflection of God’s command to us too!
As part of this campaign, hanging baskets have just been put up in local villages and we have sponsored two of these (one for our church and one for Dearne Churches Together). For us, this is a visible sign of our presence in the local community (reflecting our commitment to be ‘with God in the community, with God for the community‘) and also reflects our belief that God wants to bring beauty from ashes in our area. (Is 61:3) There are few things more beautiful than colourful flowers and so we are grateful for this opportunity to bring beauty to our high street!
