**************************************************

It was with much sadness that the death of Frank Heald was announced on Wednesday of last week. Frank died suddenly leaving his family, friends and much of this town in complete shock. It is Frank’s money that has brought the vision of the Boathouse Centre to fruition at St Nic’s. We owe him a great debt of gratitude as will countless young people and their families in the future. Frank’s funeral will take place at St Nic’s sometime in November. Please remember his family in your prayers.

All Saints and All Souls : All Saints’ Day falls on the 1st November each year and we will celebrate it next Sunday. It is a reminder of our connectedness as Christians to the church and our conviction that there is a spiritual connection between those in Heaven and on Earth. On All Saints’ there is a focus on saints and martyrs, known and unknown, whose faith and example have been passed on to us through the ages.

All Souls’ Day falls on the 2nd November and is when we remember our own loved ones and all the faithful departed. With All Souls falling at the weekend this year, the names of our loved ones will be remembered during the Sunday service at 10.45. There is a sheet at the back of church for you to append the name(s) you wish to be remembered during that service. The lists of names will be placed on altar during the service, rather than being read out individually on this occasion.

Later that evening there will be another service to which the families of all the funerals we have officiated at in the last twelve months have been invited. The names of their loved ones will be read out and they will have the opportunity to light a candle in remembrance. You are welcome to come along to this service to welcome and support our guests. We will be serving light refreshments at the end of the service.

Please remember in your prayers: Jeff Chambers, Alf Fowler, Katie, Brian Brown, Mark Price, Debbie, Michael Carthy, Rev Jane Everett, Paul Sumner, Sandra Pratt, Michael, Chris Kelsall, Maurice Larsen and Elaine Clarke. And we remember Elsie Mathias, Frank Latus, Frank Heald, and Terrance Wells and their families as funeral arrangements are being made.
