Leesfield Parish August 21st 2016

We welcome as preacher today Stuart Durber. Stuart is a Reader, licensed to the parish of St Michael, Flixton.

Thursday 25^th      Ladies of Leesfield meeting in church 7.30pm  Photograph memories.

Bonus Ball will finish this month. It has been struggling since the number of balls used in the Lotto draw was increased to 59. It has been a useful money raiser as well as a bit of fun, so we could do with a replacement from September – any ideas/offers?

Don’t forget Tuesday morning Holy Communion service at St Thomas at 10am. This is a short (30mins) service without hymns. It would be good to involve more people. If you are around at that time why not drop in and give it a try? And stay for a cuppa afterwards too !

Community Room  Anyone wishing to book the community room at St Thomas should contact Audrey Atkinson (652 2987) She is in charge of bookings so we don’t double book.

Supplementary forms – I am already getting enquiries about Bluecoat or Crompton House forms that need signing. I will discuss each one with the warden and Sunday School leader (who have the attendance records) in meetings at the beginning of October. If you have one of these to be signed please let me have it by Sunday October 2^nd, and it will be signed and returned to you well before the submission date.
