Balerno Refreshments Team Vacancies: We require a few more volunteers on our refreshments team rota. The rota is usually 1 in 6, so not an onerous rota to be on.

Balerno men are invited to a Company of Men walk on Saturday 29 April. Invitations to sign up sent via Church Suite email. Guests welcome.
Livi Men’s Pizza Night. Friday 5 May. 7.30pm. Andi Tooth’s house. This is no ordinary men’s social, this is an *eat lots of pizza* sort of a social. Can this be topped? Come along and enjoy good pizza, spend time with friends, and if you know someone who might like a “pizza the action”, why not invite them along too. For more details, sign-up via the ChurchSuite email, speak with Lawrie Hudson, or email livimen@stmungos.org
