A huge thank you to everybody in Dunsfold who played their part in raising funds during Christian Aid Week 2024. The donation from church as a result of the Cafe Church collection at the Winn Hall was £110. This year’s Christian Aid focus is their work in Burundi and our service featured insights into the massive challenges faced in one of the world’s poorest countries.A few days later a coffee morning and bring and buy sale was held at Chennels Cottage, Dunsfold. The beautiful weather encouraged a bumper turn-out of new friends and old. The guests, and subsequent donors, were wonderfully generous in donating £580.79 to Christian Aid.A team of helpers made the coffee morning very special. As ever, the secret to our success was team work.
There is no Ascension Day service planned for Dunsfold or Hascombe Church tomorrow. However, we have received invitations to join worshippers at events in Cranleigh and Wintershall.The service of Holy Communion at St Nicolas, Cranleigh is on Thursday evening at 6pm. St Andrew’s Grafham and Holy Trinity, Bramley are holding a joint service of Holy Communion at 5.30pm outside St Francis’ Chapel by the lake at Wintershall and have invited Dunsfold and Hascombe to join them.Their service will be preceded by a walk along the boundary between the parishes of Grafham and Bramley starting at 3.30pm from the Grafham Room (where parking will be available).However you are very welcome just to come to the service if you prefer. Please park in the layby by the entrance to Honeymead and walk through the gate opposite to the lake. Parking is limited so please share cars if you can.Everybody is invited to bring a picnic so we can eat together after the service
A big thank you to the Dunsfold community for recycling your inkjet cartridges via the collection bin at the back of church. Your donations have raised an impressive £143.60 for church funds, supporting the church’s continued presence and work in the village. There’s a new Recycle4Charity collection box at the back of the church ready and waiting for your used or surplus cartridges (only inkjet please, no toner cartridges). Not only does it help the environment, but for each ink cartridge recycled via the programme the church will receive up to £2 donation. Thank you Dunsfold!
