Newsletter – 23rd February 2020
Shrove Tuesday is on Tuesday the 25th February and the ladies will be making pancakes to celebrate. If you don’t usually come to the 10 am service this will be a great day to start.
Lent starts with the Ash Wednesday Service at 7.30 pm on the 26th, and will be followed by the Ladies of Leesfield AGM.
“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.
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.
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.
