NOTICES
PRISONS WEEK—13-19 OCTOBER
This is Prisons Week, in which we pray for all those involved in the prison system and others associated with it. You may like to use the Prisons Week Prayer during the course of this week:
Lord, you offer freedom to all people. We pray for those in prison. Break the bonds of fear and isolation that exist. Support with your love prisoners and their families and friends, prison staff and all who care. Heal those who have been wounded by the actions of others, especially the victims of crime. Help us to forgive one another, to act justly, love mercy and walk humbly together with Christ in his strength and in his Spirit, now and every day. Amen
ST LUKE’S PATRONAL FESTIVAL
We are invited to join our friends at St Luke’s, Holbrooks, for their patronal festival NEXT SUNDAY at 5.00pm.

A selection of Christmas cards is available for sale at the back of church. The cards are being sold in aid of a variety of charities, and St John’s will receive a small commission on each pack sold.
