at 12.00 noon.
Notices
We
would like to try out a sort of ‘mentoring’ system for our young people. What we need are willing adults volunteering
to have a young person come and sit with them, either when they come in from
Rocks, or during the All Age Services.
What is expected of you? Help
your ‘charge’ engage in and follow the service.
[Note the very helpful guide to Holy Communion on the book rack in the
porch.] We hope this will not only
enable all ages to get more out of the services, but also allow better
interaction between the ages in our congregation. If you are interested, please speak to
Sarah.
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 are spare envelopes, so please
see Sarah!
On Ash Wednesday (13th
February) there will be two Eucharist services with imposition of
ashes. One will be at 9.30 am and the
other at 7.30 pm. Please do think about
getting off to a good start in Lent by coming to either of these services.
Nomination forms are available for two Church Wardens and
three PCC members. Please leave the
completed forms (with candidates having been proposed and seconded) at the back
of church; these will be gathered up ahead of the APCM (on 17th
February). If there are more nominations
than places, elections will take place at the APCM.
If you have any photos of
Parish/Church life, send them to Paul or Sarah via email and they will be
posted on the parish blog site.
Thank you to
those of you who bought a piece of card for your church Christmas card – we
raised £17.00 for Traidcraft
There is a file at the back of church which has thank you letters
from the charities to whom we donated money last year; please do take a look.
Always remember that you are
unique.
Just like everybody else.
