Thank you to everyone who helped make last Sunday’s Harvest service and
lunch such a success!
Next Saturday (15th) Tea and Toast at
St Thomas 10.30am All welcome. Come along and bring a friend for a cuppa and a
chat.
This is the time of year when we
are asked to fill in Income survey forms.
The diocese uses these in the calculation of our Parish share. If you regularly
attend one of our churches please complete one of these anonymous forms and put
it in the box provided. Don’t think that if your income is low it’s not worth
doing….it really is!
School Supplementary forms (Bluecoat and Crompton House)
were signed this week at meetings of Edith, Church warden and Sunday School
Leader. Please collect yours from Edith (St Thomas) or Laura (St Agnes). If you
are thinking about these schools in the future Karen and Laura have simple list
of categories for qualifying for these Church forms.
On Tuesday evening (11th)
we have a meeting of Churches Together
at Zion Methodist Church at 7.30pm. This really is open to everyone! Please
come along
Unfortunately I have been unable
to arrange another series of Exploring
Prayer sessions this term as I had hoped. It has proved impossible to find
a regular time and venue for 5 sessions. I am trying to arrange for next term.
However there is a half day on November 5th that you would find
interesting. It is at the Cathedral (easy, 5 mins from the Victoria tram stop)
beginning at 9.30am. There will be 12 workshops , of which you can choose to
attend 2. Do think about coming along. More details on the posters in church.
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.
