We are sorry for Simon that he has had to give up, and are very grateful for all his hard work in the last few years, especially during COVID. The PCC are looking into how and when he might be replaced as a matter of urgency.

And grateful thanks to Wendy Burge for all her hard work - raising over £650! - and all who contributed to the prizes or bought tickets. Thank you all.

You should all have received a copy of 'A Radiant Dawn'; if you haven't, please ask Fr Julian and he can let you have one. Compline will be said in church on Wednesdays at 8.00pm.

It's earlier this month as we have a combined Christmas/January issue. Please let George Coles have any articles either directly to him or via the Parish Office. Local items are always most welcome!

Please think about doing this, especially with Christmas items, to help those who will really be struggling this Christmas. Gifts may be left at the church.
