Bible Study Monday 10am this week only at St Thomas. (There is a Wedding in Church in the afternoon) Everyone is welcome, whether you’ve been before or not.

Deanery Synod Meeting 7pm at St. Thomas, Wednesday 21^st June

Children’s Confirmation Class  Wednesday after school at St Thomas’

Adult Confirmation Class Wednesday 7pm at St Agnes’ for this week only.

On Friday the 7^th July at 7.30 pm we are holding a Cheese and Wine evening in St Thomas' Community Room. We will be sampling cheeses and wine from around the world, and there will also be a fun quiz. Tickets cost £10 each, and are available from Lesley. Please buy your tickets as early as possible so we can plan for numbers.

July 8^th is Harvest Queen Molly Mae & her retinue’s “at home”.   We would be very grateful for any donations of soft toys, chocolate, tombola items and bottles for the stalls.  Please drop off to church or give to Emma MacDonald, Liz Briggs, Ella Wood and Karen Jakeman.  Many Thanks for your support.

There are still a few seats left on the Parish Trip to Liverpool on Saturday 15^th July, please see Audrey for tickets

St Thomas church is open regularly on Tuesday and Saturday mornings, so people can drop in, look around, pray or just sit. For this to happen, we need volunteers to sit in church (Could be in the back room !) Can you help with this? Can you spare an hour now and again? See Edith or sign the list please.

Items for the newsletter to Lydia (twelve2onechurch@yahoo.co.uk) by Wednesday eve please.  *Please note the change of email address.*
