Leesfield Parish February 5th 2017


The next series of Exploring Prayer sessions will begin tomorrow, Monday February 6th, at 7pm in St Thomas Community room. We explore more imaginative ways of praying using music, pictures, meditation, scripture and more. Whether you have joined us before or not all are welcome!

Many of you (especially at St Thomas) will remember Audrey Barker. She was a very active member of church, and has sadly died. Her funeral will be in on Friday February 10th at 12 noon in St Thomas church. If anyone has particular memories of Audrey, and would like them to be included  in the eulogy please do let Edith know today.

The first edition of our new magazine is selling out fast! The cost is 80p, but as the magazine will be issued every 2 months the annual cost is the same –for a much improved product! Why not pay annually (£5)? Please remember the content depends on YOU contributing. If you have something for the magazine get it off to Paul straight away- don’t wait for the deadline date!


There are still some tickets available for the Rose Queen Dinner Dance at the White Hart on Friday March 10th. Tickets (£35) from retinue mums and Karen Jakeman.

A gentle reminder – our Tuesday morning Communion service is held every week at 10am. At St Thomas’. Currently we are in the community room (warm!) and we have a cuppa and a chat afterwards. If you are available and haven’t yet joined us do come along.

If you want to hold a social gathering or meeting do consider hiring our community room. It holds up to 30 easily, 40 with a bit of a squash, is warm and there is a kitchen and toilet. The cost is reasonable and we have links with a caterer if you are interested in that too. Audrey is in charge of bookings for the room.
