4 pm Sunday 16th October at Welshampton
We suspect a number of us will want to join Rev Maureen and John for their retirement service.
In these days of high fuel prices and environmental concerns it would be good to take as few cars as possible and some who want to go may not have car access.
Mike Still will try to coordinate transport. So if you are going and have spare car space or you want to go but need a lift. Please contact Mike.
If you are interested in a Coach or Minibus again if there is sufficient demand we will try and organise it.
Please reply to Mike by Sunday 25th Sept.

Stay as long as you like. Quiet time from 10.00 out of respect for neighbours. Aim for a nice informal social time.
Please share widely. We don’t want people to feel left out or uninvited. We do intend to use this opportunity to gauge who is interested in the possibility of forming some housegroups .

Saturday 27th August
11am – 4pm
The Parish is once again providing large outdoor games in the park and also the opportunity to write a prayer lily.
Coffee and cake will be served in St. James’ Church.
Cakes are needed and the cost of ingredients can be reimbursed.
Volunteers are needed to serve the cakes in the church and to chat to people as they play the games or write a prayer.
Help in setting up the games from 9.30am will also be valuable.
If you can help for any part of the day, please email:
alisonwhiteley@ntlworld.com or mike_still@hotmail.com
The games have proved very popular at the last events and, as ever, many hands make light work!
