Our Table Top Sale on November 19 raised £1,010 in total, a great result for everyone involved. The money will help support St James Church over the next year and beyond. Many thanks to everyone who made this possible.We had another successful Cafe Church today (November 20) to celebrate Christ the King with words, hymns and prayers.Next week (November 27) we are back in church for the First Sunday of Advent, and in the afternoon our Christingle service will be in the church hall, starting 4pm.
We're in the church hall next Sunday, November 20, when we celebrate Christ the King with Cafe Church.The service starts at 11am but there will be the usual refreshments in advance so people are asked to arrive after 10.30am.There will be readings and intercessions, but Cafe Church offers a more relaxed form of worship.On the day before, November 19, we have our Table Top Sale in the hall, from 10.30am to 2.30pm, offering a variety of tables, as well as a raffle, a chocolate tombola and refreshments. Hopefully this will be a good fund-raiser for the church, replacing the traditional Christmas fair.And talking of Christmas ... we have finalised our Christmas services, full details are available on the separate page on this site.We are also looking forward to a Christmas-themed concert in church on the evening of Friday, December 16.
The week ahead includes the regular gardening team at 10am Monday morning, bingo in the hall at 1.30pm Tuesday, the Give it a Go group in the hall Wednesday 10.30 and coffee morning in the hall Friday 10.30 to 12noon.Looking ahead, we are finalising plans for the Table Top Sale on Saturday, November 19, and Messy Church in the hall on November 20.Times for our Christmas services have been confirmed and are on a separate page on this site.
