NOTICES

Platinum Jubilee Afternoon tea will be available on Sunday 5 June at 4.00pm. Please sign the list if you’d like to come along. We hope this will be a bring and share, so if you indicate whether you can bring cake, scones, mini sandwiches or biscuits, that’d be helpful!

Your church needs you! Volunteers are required to serve on various PCC committees. This is a way that you can help Holy Trinity to work effectively. We have 4 main committees. Mission (Fr Julian), Finance (John Rudge), Building (John Godley) and Social – not catering! – Liz Hathway/Wendy Burge. If you’d like to think about joining any one of these, please see the named person. Thank you.

Kath Darch, RIP Kath’s funeral will be on Thursday 9 June at 12 noon here at Holy Trinity, followed by cremation at 1.30pm. May she rest in peace and rise in glory.

Bells Thank you, Margaret Jordan and John Godley for the display of photos of the church bells. They have been taken to Loughborough, where the process of cleaning and repairing them has already started.

Fr Julian will be at a residential conference at the Royal Foundation of St Katherine in London this week (31 May – 1 June) and so will be unavailable.

We welcome John Eyles again as our organist this morning and very grateful to him for standing in once again. Sadly, Simon is not well at present; we wish him a full and speedy recovery.

Church Grounds Many thanks all of you who helped tidy the church grounds yesterday. Hard work, but worth it!

New Prebendaries One of the three new prebendaries of Wells Cathedral recently appointed is Fr Robin Lodge, the Vicar of St Andrew’s here in Taunton, and a good friend to Holy Trinity. We congratulate him and hold him in prayers. He will be installed on Tuesday 7 June at 5.15pm during Cathedral evensong.
