As we turn the corner in Winter and head towards Spring and Summer, many people begin to think about 'getting fit' and venturing outdoors. Sometimes it feels as if everything in nature is coming to life around us: the garden starts growing again and flowering, the sun is actually warm, and the days are getting longer.

For ourselves and our family, we start considering what summer activity and sport to choose, where our next holiday destination is, and whether our 'fat' clothes are our real clothes…

A church has seasons of life as well — last term, we were able to have a health check-up as we plan for the future. The first of many chances to work towards better health for MBC starts Wednesday August 4 at our Church Family Meeting. All are welcome. For preparation, there is an 'exercise manual' called the ABC's of Natural Church Development. We have enough for everyone to take one and read to be part of the MBC health kick.
