News update 1st March 2020
Sunday the 1st March is All-age Eucharist at St Agnes’. There will be no Sunday School, and the whole church family is invited to worship together in church. Children from KS2 will be singing at the service, and Neil will be doing the “talk” for the first time at St Agnes’. It’s also Sausage Sunday, so please do stay afterwards to enjoy a delicious brunch and help to raise funds for our churches.
“Worship for all Generations” services continue at 6.30 pm every Thursday at St Thomas’, in the warmth of the Community Room during the cold weather. The focus for the next few weeks will be on Lent and Prayer, and from Thursday 5th March Neil has asked if everyone could write a small prayer (even just 1 line), which we can include in our worship.
There will be a Lent Taize service at St Thomas’ on Sunday 8th March at 4 pm. This is a short quiet and reflective service with candles, prayer and music, to which everyone is invited.
As usual this year we will be admitting children (Year 4 upwards) to Holy Communion for the first time on Easter Sunday. Please see Edith or any of the Sunday School leaders for more information.
Churches Together Lent Lunches start on Tuesday 3rd March, 12 noon at Zion Methodist Church. This year we will be watching the film “I, Daniel Blake”, and having a short discussion before a simple lunch. There is no charge for lunch, but donations will be gratefully received and passed on to a local charity.
The World Day of Prayer service will be on Friday 6th March, 1 pm at Zion Methodist Church.
The Ladies of Leesfield Coffee Morning at 10 am on Saturday the 7th March will be hosted by Mrs Beryl Marshall in the Community Room, and everyone is most welcome to come along.
