Happy New Year! I hope everyone has had a lovely Christmas and as we begin to think about taking down decorations, can I remind you that Christmas Cards for Cobalt will be back in action again this year in church. There will be large bags in the pews opposite the doors as you come into church from this Sunday, 4th January and they will be here every day until after the service on Sunday, 11th January when they will be taken to the Cobalt Unit in Cheltenham. Just a couple of reminders from the volunteer teams who create the 'new' cards: *Please give the cards in whole - do not take the backs off. They need those to create the new ones. *Please put your cards in bags rather than leaving them loose. *Please do not mix Christmas cards with other greetings cards. If you have birthday or anniversary cards from December - as we have! - please keep them just now. I'll be collecting those again after 11th January. Thank you again for supporting this scheme all year - there are cards in the tub almost every week.Sheila
