Benefice
Newsletter
17 September 2020
This is the last edition of the electronic, and posted, weekly newsletter. Many thanks to Agnes and Rev Christine who have produced and circulated the newsletter during the period of lockdown.
As we now continue to meet in church, the notices will be published on the weekly folio, which is available on our website.
The magazine continues to be a great monthly source of news and information, if you don’t currently receive a copy, are unable to pick one up from church or have no internet access, please contact John Vintiner (01933 382502, johnvmagazine@virginmedia.com) to make sure that you receive a copy.
Rev Paula
We will have a special Eucharist service of Thanksgiving at our normal service times on Sunday 27 September, however there can not be any congregational singing and our harvest gifts will not be brought up to the altar as they would normally.
This year we are donating all Harvest gifts to the Daylight Centre. We ask that you bring non-perishable goods to church on 27 September. If you would like to make a coin donation, please tape the coin to the packaging. There will be a container in church for people to place their donations in as they come into church. All donations are gratefully received.
Those who suffer in body, mind or spirit, among them Peter B, Christian S, Sue P, Roger P, Richard H, Tim C.
The housebound Ruth S, Margaret O, Diana B.
The church The Province of the Episcopal Church of South Sudan: The Most Revd Justin Badi Arama, Archbishop of Juba and of the Province of the Episcopal Church of South Sudan; The Porvoo Churches – Sheffield, Sodor and Man, Diocese of Greenland within the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Denmark.
If you would like to add a name to our prayer list, please first obtain the consent of the person you wish us to pray for. Then tell Rev Paula or Agnes at the Benefice Office whom to pray for and the reason why. A name remains on the list for three weeks.
We remember those who died recently, among them Audrey Samson.
