The calm before the storm gave Billy and Dave the opportunity to fix a couple of leaks in the roof. No more puddles hopefully - well, not inside anyway!

We were sorry to hear of the death of Sr Sibongile CHN Zululand. We hold our sisters in our prayers as they prepare for her funeral which will take place on 16th October.

It has been good to complete the transformation of an area of the garden, which formerly contained a rockery, some very dangerous ornamental steps and a diseased prunus tree into a newly-turfed area ready for new seating next spring. We are very grateful to the men who worked so hard to produce such a good result and very lucky that the prunus tree, whose hollowed out area you can see on the stump, did not collapse on anyone, despite having very little support.

Today's date has been in the diary for some time - it was the date for our gardener Ben to dig up the potatoes he had planted. Sisters Monica and Julie waited with bated breath as he tipped out the contents onto a groundsheet and, our prayers had been answered, as the potatoes spilled out. They weighed 3.5 lbs and tasted delicious. Ben can now give his presentation to his gardening club. Nice one Ben!!

Managed to catch a photo of our lovely pineapple tree in full bloom. It's scent is wonderful. We almost lost the tree a couple of years ago as it fell over! Fortunately help was at hand to restore it and it is now making the most of the space vacated by a large spruce which was felled last summer.

The end of a visit by our Bishop Visitor of 5 years, Bp. Humphrey Southern was marked this morning by the presentation to him of an icon written by Sr. Theresa Margaret CHN. We are very grateful for all that he has given to us and delighted that he will continue to visit us in a pastoral / facilitator capacity.
