Leesfield Parish   July 16th    2017

It’s the last week of term for our schools!
Leavers services:-
St Agnes’ – Wednesday 7pm
St Thomas’ – Thursday 1.15pm
We wish the Year 6 leavers from St Thomas’, St Agnes’ and St Hugh all the best as they move to their new schools in September.
There is still a lot happening in the Parish during the holidays, so there will be a newsletter at the end of July to keep you up-to-date, and a further one just before the schools go back.
Sunday and Tuesday services will continue as usual. There will be no Sunday School at St Thomas’, but children are most welcome to join us at our services. St Agnes’ Sunday School carries on, with a more informal “Holiday Club” style.

Bible Study is still taking place on some Mondays at 1.30pm in the holidays (24th and 31st July, and 14th August). Frank and lively discussions about Scripture and our walk with God. Each Study stands alone...so it doesn't matter if you have missed a few weeks. Do be encouraged to come along! It’s not every week in the holidays so please keep the dates list handy.

Oldham Play Action Group are running activity sessions for Primary School age children in St Thomas’ Community Room every Thursday 1-3pm in the holidays. There will be arts & crafts, and indoor and outdoor play. The sessions are free of charge and open to all, but children under 8 must be accompanied by an adult. Volunteers are needed to help with the activities.

Tea and Toast – Please join the Ladies of Leesfield for Tea & Toast at St Thomas’ on Saturday 22nd July at 10.30am. Cost £3 including raffle.  

This year's Boundary Walk is on Saturday 12th August. Although some families may be away, many will not, so if you're looking for something a bit different to fill a Saturday why not come along and join us? Sponsor forms now available.

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 spare an hour now and again? See Edith or sign the list please.

Items for the newsletter to Liz (lizzy.dent@googlemail.com) by Wednesday eve please.
