Her Majesty the Queen: The State Funeral of Her Majesty the Queen will take place at Westminster Abbey on Monday 19th September at 11.00 am. The Church will be open from 9 am until 10.30 am on Monday for quiet reflection and prayers before the funeral. The memorial book will be available in Church until after Holy Communion together on Tuesday. If anyone would like to sign the book of condolence but has not been able to do so, please ring the Vicarage and we will arrange to bring it to you.
The Dream Team Singers: This wonderful local choir have offered to perform in St Nicholas Church on Saturday 1st October at 7 pm in aid of our Roof Fund! It will be a real feel-good evening and so well timed after the grief and upset of these past days. Tickets are £5 each and are available from today from any member of the PCC. This is an event to which you can invite friends, neighbours and family. Prayerfully consider who you might bring! To make the most of the evening we need some great raffle prizes and bottles of wine, which we will serve during the interval. The more that’s donated, the less we’ll have to buy and so more will go into the fund. Donate only if you’re able.
Roof Works: The bad news is that the work has been halted temporarily because what we thought was the problem isn’t the problem. The good news is that although we’ve had to go back to the drawing board, at least we won’t be spending £50,000 on the roof only to have the same problem! During this temporary halt in work, we intend to reopen the Church mid-week for private prayer from 11.00 am -12.30 pm.
100 Club – Winners last week were Gillian King, Margery Bond, and Beryl Clarkson.
Please remember in your prayers – Rev Jane Everitt, Tony and Maureen Hardman, Rev Martin Keighley, Gillian & Elizabeth King, and Edna Jenkins. Also, the Royal Family and the families of Michael Roskell, and Ryan Conneely whose funerals are due to take place.
