The adventures of KMC worship group - 2. Firenze

24 hours to go - not to Sunday's service - we've temporarily abdicated responsibility to the youth band (plus a couple of 50+ers). We've only done this once before in 5 years - when the whole lot of us went to visit our friends in Germany.

This time, we don't have friends to visit as an excuse. However, we all wanted to go to Tuscany! So we are!

I would like to say this is a spiritual retreat, allowing us to come closer to God and hone our skills ready for years of fruitful service to come. However ...

Well, you know Jesus' saying about the vine and the branches - we thought we should go and inspect the vines at source, and sample the produce - despite being Methodists. I believe the cellars at the Castello di Verrazzano do a nice lunch as well.

I will report on the results - I think a good time will be had by all, which is another side of the spiritual coin. We middle-aged can also enjoy ourselves, you know...
