Following on from my stewardship sermon at Great Casterton on Sunday I can advise that there will be a gift day collection on Saturday 28th September when I will be in church between 09.00 and 12.00 noon to hopefully receive a one off financial gift to help with Great Casterton Church Finance.As I mentioned on Sunday our current day to day expenditure is exceeding our day to day income by almost £8,000 per year. If you can help make a financial donation towards this deficit the PCC will be most grateful. Please bring any donation cash or cheque in a sealed envelope payable to Great Casterton PCC.I will not be opening any envelopes so the only person who will be aware of you donation will be our treasurer Sue Peacock.Teas and coffee and a general chat will be available during the morning. If you can't make Saturday and wish to contribute just make a donation to Sue Peacock when you see her or use the QR reader in church.Thank you all for money and time you already give.Every BlessingRevd.

The Benefice Harvest Festival is being held at Pickworth Church this Sunday commencing at 10.30am. The original plan was to be outside in a nearby field but the temperatures are expected to drop below 10 degrees and it will be cold. Hence the move indoors.I hope you can support this service as the small Pickworth congregation are making efforts to welcome you all with a glass of wine and some sausage rolls after the service.Pickworth church can be located 200 yards on the west side of the village between Pickworth Crossroads and the A1. Please wrap up well.If you need a lift please let me know and I will try and accommodate.Best WishesRevd. Don
