Leesfield Parish   July 2nd    2017

The Parish Confirmation Service is at St Thomas’ at 11am on Sunday July 9^th. There will be no service at St Agnes’ on that day

Confirmation Rehearsal 7pm on Tuesday.

Bible Study: Monday at 1.30. The Group enjoys frank and lively discussions about Scripture and our walk with God. We have been learning about the Holy Spirit but each Study stands alone...so it doesn't matter if you have missed a few weeks. Do be encouraged to come along!

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.

July 8^th is Harvest Queen Molly Mae & her retinue’s “at home”, 2pm. 

This is a celebration of her year as Harvest Queen and there will be a short service when Rose, May & Harvest Queens from other churches will join her.

Afterwards there will be refreshments and stalls over in the school hall. 

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 Liz (lizzy.dent@googlemail.com) by Wednesday eve please.  *Please note the change of email address.*
