FAITH OR FICTION
Is there a God? Why are we here? Do all Christians wear socks and sandals?
These are just a few of the questions that you can ask if you come on Wednesday
26 February at lunchtime in Room 2. The Christian Union will be there with some
other people to try and answer any questions you may have. Everyone is welcome.
