Notices
It
is good to have Judith Meaden and Molly Hoyle, MU diocesan officers, with us
this morning. Judith and Molly will be
happy to ask any questions and have a chat to folk about issues relating to
Mother’s Union – what being a member involves and so on.
If
you use the envelope scheme in your giving, please come and collect your new
batch of envelopes. If you don’t use
this scheme currently, but would like to, there will probably be some spare
envelopes, so please see Sarah!
A
reminder that the APCM will be held on Sunday 17th February
following the morning service. If you
are responsible for submitting a written report for the APCM, please let Sarah
have your report by 27th
January at the very latest.
Information about the Lent and Eastertide Schools 2013
is available from the poster and booklet at the back of church. For further information, please see Paul or
Sue.
If you have any photos of parish/church life – send
them to Paul or Sarah (via email) and they’ll be posted on the new Parish blog
site.
Electoral
Roll: Every six years we are required to prepare a
completely new electoral roll. Members
on the previous roll will need to apply to be included - inclusion is not
automatic. New people can also apply during this period. A person applies
by filling out a very short form. If you are aged 16 or over and worship
regularly at St. Peter’s you are warmly encouraged to have your name included.
All forms must be returned to Debbie Carson by 27th January 2013.
You
will (perhaps…) have been aware that not many of the radiators in our church
have been working. We spent a bit of
time getting quotes in to replace like-for-like [not an entirely efficient way
to heat the church building]. The quotes
for this were between £5628 and £7295.
We also got a quote to replace the current system with a ‘wet’
system. As well as a more efficient heat
system, this would enable hot water to be available and provide heating in the
crèche and Rocks room. The quote for
this was around £26,640.00. It was
decided – pretty promptly – that we simply cannot afford the latter, and so are
going to have the current system replaced with a like-for-like system. You should notice the difference in
temperature this morning!
Toward
the end of last year, the PCC submitted a grant application to English Heritage
for funds towards repairs on the church – primarily to do with the back end of
the church that is slowly pulling away from the main body and causing large
cracks. However, we were not successful
in our bid – simply because there are other applications from our region that
were more urgent than ours. At some
stage the Buildings Committee will meet to look at where we go now, prioritise
works needed etc. If you would like to
feed ideas into that, please let Paul, Julian or Judith know.
Someone is sitting
in the shade today,
because someone
planted a tree
a long time ago
