– and the August issue

Filling your church magazine in the summer months can be a challenge, with all your normal church activities on hold. But no worries, because there is plenty to choose from in our current issue, which should keep your readers happy until the September issue.

This month look out for:

Church reaction to the Abortion and Assisted Dying votes in Parliament

How the Lord’s Prayer still tops Shakespeare, Dickens, Churchill and National Anthem

What journalists are asking the new Pope to do for them

Also – 

How new data shows ‘sheer scale’ of child poverty 

What Christians in social media are saying to Elon Musk

How Christians can help seafarers worldwide

Then we are looking back on –

The atomic bomb that hit Hiroshima

The vicar who won Wimbledon

JAWS – the shark who came for dinner – 50 years on

Finally, 

Why you should make sure that your sunglasses are good enough

How to protect your dog from heatstroke

The benefits of coochie-coo 

We wish you a happy and peaceful summer!
