Inclusive Sunday gathering: Finding our place - through webcomics

Coming up this Sunday, 11am - “Finding our place - through webcomics”

As the world of news and media has changed, one of the most fluid of changes was the ease with which comics and illustrated media moved to online spaces. Webcomics started in the 1980s, and today many of us consume and share them in online spaces. They have become a space for modern philosophy and communication of complex topics. In particular, they have given many artists direct access to vast audiences, without the intermediary of traditional print media.

Our inclusive gathering (for non-theists, theists and everyone in between) this Sunday at 11am will be led by Aleks Zglinska, a member of our congregation, who loves the gentle ministry of sharing these little gems, and is excited to introduce you to some of her favourites.

Join us at 11am for a combination of songs, readings, reflection, a message, and time to connect - plus, of course, tea and coffee afterwards.
There’s no children’s provision this week, but as always, children and their noise/chaos are welcome in our space, and there are toys and drawing materials in the lobby that they are welcome to use and bring in.

Sunday 12th October, at 31 Ryland Street, B16 8BL. We look forward to welcoming you!

Over autumn we'll be exploring an overarching theme of 'Place', with a varied and thought-provoking series of Sunday gatherings designed to be inclusive of everyone, from atheists to those with their own belief systems. We have gatherings in the running on varied topics, including one inspired by the Birmingham artist John Newling's work on puddles; by the Ladywood Regeneration; looking at our relationship and feelings/love for Birmingham (see our gathering "Home Bab", on 14th September); examining our place in the year around the autumn equinox; a gathering featuring renowned live artist Stacy Makishi, and much more still to be announced. As always, please keep an eye on our website for the most up-to-date information.
