Chair Storage at Maghull Baptist Church

Featured

As many of you might have noticed there has been some water damage/staining to the walls in the small hall ( our coffee room).

The Church Management Committee have, accordingly, decided to re-decorate the room. They ask that NO GREY CHAIRS BE STORED IN THE ROOM for the moment to enable easy access for a painting crew.    All chairs should be stored facing our noticeboards in the  main hall.
Thank you for your co-operation.

Lady Lever, Jim Moir, Wednesday August 6th

Jim Moir (aka Vic Reeves) Bird Artist, August 6th

Dawn to Dusk .  Jim Moir is Vic Reeves   Art has always remained his first love and his original, eccentric and mischievous artwork has been exhibited at Institutions including the Royal Academy in London.  The anarchy and wonderful eccentricity, which he is synonymous with, is evident in his bold, vibrant and often surreal artworks which merge his interest in the natural world and his witty imagination.

‘Moir is a compulsive artist, recording his thoughts and observations with abandon. The imagined and experienced worlds are chronicled in a prolific outpouring of ideas and thoughts beyond everyday life.’
