A big thankyou to those who delivered afternoon tea to the members of the church 'Talk and Tea 'group who meet on the 3rd Monday of the month at St Andrews Blidworth.Special thanks to Maureen Garner who prepared the sandwiches etc and plated the afternoon tea up. Maureen also help to deliver the teas with Marilyn Brown and Sharon Winders and Kath McCready.What a wonderful act of kindness.Talk and Tea provides an opportunity for people who are lonely, perhaps because of bereavement or isolation or just lack of company, who would welcome being able to have a cup of tea and chat with others. Because of the coronavirus the group have not been able to meet since March so the ladies decide to take the tea to them and surprise all those who received one.
Dear Brothers and Sisters In Christ. Even though the church is closed for public Worship we are still United through God. Let us continue to pray for each other in these challenging and difficult times. Remember if you are feeling alone and isolated, you are not alone. God is always by you side, loving you, guiding you, and protecting you. The churchwardens of St Simon and St Jude's Rainworth and St Mary's of the Purification Blidworth would like to wish each and everyone of you a Happy Easter. Take care, Stay safe and Stay home.Peace be with you all this EasterSue and Kath
Normally we would have a beautiful Easter Garden in our churches. This year some of us have made our own using materials found at home, and according to our individual talents. The youngest gardeners are 4 year old twins, and the oldest a lady in her 90's . Thank you to everyone for sharing your Easter Gardens with us.
