On admission to hospital, please ensure that your religion is registered and ask for a visit from hospital chaplaincy team. Chaplains visit the wards during the week and will organise spiritual, sacramental and pastoral care for you; they also provide an 'On Call' service in case of emergency. Please let your clergy / minister know if you or a close relative are in hospital. To contact the West Herts hospital chaplaincy directly, call 01923 217994 or 07776 598704. Referrals can also be made via email: <a href="mailto:westherts.spiritualcare@nhs.net">westherts.spiritualcare@nhs.net</a>
We would like to put together a list of people who regularly attend our churches and are trained in first aid. We do hope you won't be needed - but just in case! Please contact Mary Willatt (jwillatt@icloud.com)
There are always jobs that need doing in our churches. If you want to help, if you have spare time, if you want to get out more and meet friendly people while doing something worthwhile, please consider whether you could get involved.The list will be updated from time to time: keep looking!1. The Tuesday Lunch Club at St Stephens needs more volunteers. We would be delighted to have a chat with anybody who might be able to help with this. Please contact the parish office on 01727 862598 to be put in touch with Harriet who coordinates this very important part of our outreach for the more mature people in our community.2. There are coffee meetings after the Sunday Parish Communion service at St Stephens. If you are interested in joining the rota of coffee servers (or want to be removed), please contact the Parish Office (office@ststephenandstjulian.org or 01727 862598).3. The St Stephen's Flower Guild would appreciate some more help. The Guild is a small group of ladies who keep the church decorated with flowers throughout the year - normally every week and at major festivals. We also arrange the flowers for weddings – pedestals and the arch above the door. We need more people to join us. Do you have a liking for flowers and a desire to climb a ladder to arrange the arch? If you do, please contact Angela Hanley tel: 01727 8752574. Toys for small children are needed for the creche at St Stephens during the Sunday morning service.
