The changing colours on the trees remind us that we are into the time of harvest and Autumn. At the end of last month, we celebrated our harvest festival in church, and still have lovely displays around us that remind us of God's good gifts.

This is a time when we think about sowing and growing. But it is not just things in our gardens that grow; it is things in our lives too. We are called to grow as God's people and sow seeds of His love to others. Some of you may be going to the District event this month 'Flourish', a title which reminds us that we are to grow and bear fruit in our walk of discipleship.

Whatever this season holds for us, may we all keep growing in Christ and growing as a church family, that we may be part of God's fruitful harvest in Easingwold.
