Dates for your Diary
Coffee morning
Tuesday 22nd January 2019 at 10:30am.
Come along and join in the fun, everyone is welcome. £600 raised from the coffee mornings has gone to pay for essential electrical work in the Parish Centre.
The £600 was not raised from the Bingo Night as last weeks newsletter stated.
Prisoner Outreach
Do you – like me – find carrying round small coins a waste of time? The Prisoner Outreach Organisation is a Christian network of volunteers who have been voluntarily working in HM Prisons and supplies copies of the BIBLE ALIVE booklets to prisoners.
Drop your loose change into the bottle on the bookshelves in the porch and help to support this organisation.
Prayers for John
Please keep John – our Saturday organist – in your prayers. He can hardly walk, but the good news is he has been given the go ahead for a new knee. There is no date yet for the operation, but he is hoping it will be soon. John hopes to be back with us soon so please remember him in your prayers.
Children’s Society Boxes
If you have an old Children’s Society box please collect your new Caritas box from the table in the porch. You just need to put it together but the instructions are on the box. Thanks, Elaine Birkett.
Readers and Eucharistic Ministers
The new Rotas will be published after Christmas. If you need your details to be amended can you please contact Beryl preferably by text (0789094250) or leave a note in the music cupboard.
