Huizen celebrated Neighbours' Day and the churches participated. CGK Huizen is happy to let us share in the enthusiasm and gratitude and sent us this report by Eduard Dozy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is Saturday afternoon, 28 September. We, the churches on Gemeenlandslaan and Versa welfare, have organised this day and extensive flyering has been done in the neighbourhood, by lots of volunteers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The programme starts at noon and ours is the closing, so I have a chance to soak up the atmosphere at the Pni\u00ebl church, there are already some guests there. We get a look around the church and are told about its construction. After coffee and a homemade treat, I have another 15 minutes to visit the Zenderkerk. Outside, there is pavement chalk drawing and poffertjes baking, and inside there are sandwiches and soup and the children can have fun playing shuffleboard. Inside the church, live music by a group of young people is playing. Here, too, guests have descended and hospitality is enjoyed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is now 12.45pm so I quickly go to the CGK to get everything ready. There I see Esther coming and a little later Jos and Jan. We first try to set up a party tent in the garden, which is not quite complete by then, but fortunately this is quickly resolved. Pretty soon, the place is decorated with balloons and flags.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
