The Launch - in photos (courtesy of Anna)

We had a lovely, lovely launch.

I played the harp.

Joe prayed for us and afterwards served Hartzview wine and Lucaston Park Apple Juice to the guests.

Peirce told a choose-your-own-adventure story putting the audience
in the shoes of a future visitor to Pilgrim Hill.

Will interviewed us urbanely.

Luke gave a TED talk.  (Actually, it was about our Association and the financial needs.)

Margaret made amazing food. (Honey-caramel apples, right here.)

Shiloh did all the graphic design and served food with visual aplomb.

Over 100 people came. They listened, laughed, prayed, feasted and filled in response cards. 

Pilgrim Hill friends, old and new.

God is good.

Thanks, everyone.

She'll be apples

So there's this little thing coming up this Saturday night (Oct 22nd).
It's the launch of our association AND YOU HAD BETTER BE THERE!!

Pilgrim Hill Association Launch

7 pm, Saturday, October 22nd 

Hope Christian Centre

25 Tasma Street, North Hobart

We're doing a few things to bless you during the evening:

Music.  I'll be playing a Huon Valley-inspired harp piece I wrote for the Cygnet Folk Festival that hasn't been recorded yet. I don't get out as much as I used to since I'm having so much fun here at home with the mini-Baehrs, so don't miss a rare Christina Baehr (née Sonnemann) appearance.

Wine. Rob and Anthea Patterson at Hartzview Vineyard have donated two boxes of their beautiful local wines. The Pattersons are a Christian family who are pioneers in the Tassie wine industry and run a wonderful business in the Huon. (Their Tasmanian Apple-Honey Mead is a Tasmanian icon.)






Apple juice. Ah, but not just apple juice. Lucaston Park Apple Juice.  I've got your attention now, haven't I? The Griggs Family at Lucaston Park Orchards has been super encouraging to us and we thank God that in His providence they are the commercial orchard nearest to PH. We have so much respect for their integrity and commitment to living like Jesus.  

Food. There will be light 'nibbles' with a fresh, seasonal, Huon valley theme. Featured will be Margaret Sonnemann's creamy home-made ricotta. 

And apples, of course.
