A small group of poets, musicians, storytellers, comedians and artists have begun getting together to look at starting an arts event at the CCC Coffee Shop. We are aiming to put on quality performances exploring issues of life and faith from a variety of perspectives….please get in touch if this sounds like something you’d be interested in….

All Dads/Male Carers and their under-5′s are welcome in the back hall of the Cotttenham Community Centre Coffee Shop. We have a selection of toys, books and soft play equipment, and plenty of room for babies and older children. As usual, we are able to order drinks and food from the Coffee Shop. The session runs roughly from 10:30-11:30, but if you fancy coming along early to help get set up you are more than welcome. Children are the responsibility of their parents at all times!

Wishing you an inspiring, peaceful Easter.

All Dads/Male Carers and their under-5′s are welcome. Last month was our first gathering in the Back Hall (which is in the room next to the Coffee Shop) and we had a great time. There is a selection of toys, books and soft play equipment, and plenty of room for babies and older children. And, of course, there is the chance to buy a bacon sandwich, relax and get to know one another for the Dads/Carers. The session runs roughly from 10:30-11:30, but if you fancy coming along early to help get set up you are more than welcome. Children are the responsibility of their parents at all times!

This week’s seventh and final session looks at how we can best express love to our partners by knowing and understanding which ’love languages’ we most value. If your love language is Chocolate Brownies, then you’re in for a good evening…

This week’s session looks at the place of sex within long term relationships. This week’s dessert is a chocolate cake which might be even better than sex…

All Dads/Male Carers and their under-5′s are welcome. After meeting for a few months in the Coffee Shop, we are expanding and meeting in the Cottenham Community Centre hall, which is in the next room to the Coffee Shop. But we’re still able to buy the fantastic bacon sandwiches and coffees and bring them through. There will be a selection of toys, books and soft play equipment for the kids, and the chance to relax and get to know one another for the Dads/Carers. Children are the responsibility of their parents at all times!

The session on 7th February looks at the past and present impact which our families have on our relationships, and the present and future impact which cheesecake has on our waistlines…

This week’s session looks at Forgiveness as an essential ingredient in long term relationships. This week’s dessert looks at pear and almond as essential ingredients in a pear and almond tart!

Cottenham’s Marriage Course is well under way with 2 sessions already having taken place. It’s been going well so far, with a dozen couples of all ages enjoying delicious desserts, excellent coffee,  DVD presentations and the space and time to have quality one-on one conversations. Next week’s session is on ‘Resolving Conflict’…next week’s dessert is Eton Mess! If you are interested in possible future courses please do get in touch.

For all those couples signed up for our Marriage Course at the CCC Coffee Shop, it begins this week at 7:30 pm…. we’re looking forward to seeing you all there!
