Jane Lee’s farewell arrangements

Sadly for us Jane will finish her normal duties in our parish at the end of the month. She will have farewell services on Wednesday 12th June and Sunday 16th June. After the 11am service on the 16th June there will be a Jacob’s join to which all are invited. – If you can come and contribute something, please indicate what you can bring on the sheet at the back of church, so we can ensure there is a variety of food. Thank you.

We wish Jane all the very best in her new parish and thank her for the great contribution she has made towards worship at All Saint’s.

Christian Aid Week

This year’s focus is on helping mothers in childbirth in one of the world’s poorest countries – Sierra Leone in West Africa.

Individual envelopes are available at the back of church if you wish to make your own donation. Also if  you are able to help with the house – to – house delivery and collection, that would be great as there are still some packs that need distributing. Again they are at the back of church.
