St. Leonard's Hospice
Thankyou to all who have supported during the year - buying from the table in the narthex, coffee mornings, Christmas cards, etc. With your help we have raised £1,083 during 2011.__________Sue Garnett

Archdeacon's Visitation
We had the Archdeacon's Visitation recently in which three clergymen went through the registers, the safes and examined the records and buildings. We now need offers of help or suggestions as to how we, as a church family, can tackle the shortcomings they found:

  • sides people and readers needed for Sundays
  • volunteers to do coffee and refreshments
  • brass cleaning - we need a monthly rota
  • meeting room chairs need refreshing
  • meeting room carpet needs cleaning
  • there is an urgent need for cash counters
  • vacancies to fill for office staff, due to the resignation of Christine and Valerie

Stamps and postcards
Please continue to save stamps and postcards and drop them into church or 17 Foxthorn Paddock. They can be turned into cash to help the people of Sudan. Remember to leave the postcards intact, but cut stamps from envelopes leaving a 1/4" border all round. Your support is much appreciated.__________Sue Garnett

Sunday morning lifts
If you would be willing to be on a rota to offer lifts to church on occasional Sunday mornings, please read the notice in the narthex. Later this year, some of our congregation will find it impossible to get to church because of lack of transport. If you feel able to give an occasional lift, please sign the notice in the narthex or see Christine.

Church library
Our well-stocked library is available to all who use the church. We are fortunate to have such a range of books that will appeal to new readers of Christian books and scholars too. Come and take a look - there is something for everyone. Registration is very simple - we only require your name and address in the blue register. The borrowing procedure is easy and explained.

New titles are frequently added to the library and books recently acquired are on the bookcase facing you as you enter. A small collection of videos is on your left.__________Peter Rycraft
