Dear AllHope your week is working well for you.I’ve attached a flyer for the Quiz Night on 30th November. After the very popular Quiz Night at the weekend at High Wych, I can see that we have some real quizzers in our community. I hope you will be able to come and bring a team of people with you, so we can have some fun together. You will notice from this flyer that your first drink will be provided and there will be nibbles on the table, and you may like to bring your own supper. I do urge you to book early with Christine or Rosemary to avoid disappointment as the tables do get booked up quickly.As half term approaches – Jimmy’s Baby and Toddler group and Jim’s café will not be meeting next week, and so I wish all the teams a fun and restful week and want to take this opportunity to thank them for all the hard work they put in, you are all amazing, thank you. This means I will be taking the Monday 28th October to Saturday 2nd November away from my office, laptop, phone etc. Also please note that my landline phone is still not working although I have been promised by BT that they will be working again by the end of this week. I cannot currently pick up any messages that are left, so please leave messages on my mobile 0783 366 7707, and I will get back to you as soon as I can.This weekend our services are:-9.30 am Communion service at St James, High Wych11.15 am Family service at St Botolph’s, EastwickI look forward to seeing you at one of these services.Every blessingAlison
Dear AllAs I write this in my boots, jumper and woolly socks, with the heating on – I am so hot!!! It turns out that it is 21.5 degrees outside.Our weather is really weird at the moment.I wonder how your week is going? I must admit there have been a few irritating things happening like phones not working, computer doing strange things and my tyre springing a leak on my car – please do not currently leave me a message on my home phone as I cannot pick messages up and I am waiting for BT to fix the problem.Apart from that…..I have been busy in the school so far this week, with Year 1 coming into the church on Monday, Collective worship in the school on Tuesday, and a SIAMS meeting today as governors. If you would like to be more involved with the school and can envision yourself on the governing board as a Foundation Governor, please do have a word with me. We are currently looking to fill this position from the Church if possible.Please read the attached Welcome sheet as it is full of information you will want to know as we head through October and into November. The new Link magazine will be available over the next week and then it is onto all the Christmas services and activities……. How quickly we seem to have moved from summer into the Christmas season!! Just a reminder that we have our churchyard tidy up session at St Botolph’s church on Saturday 19th October 2.00 pm to 4.00 pm, if you are able to make it – hopefully the weather will be like today!This Sunday we are able to meet at 9.30 am at St James, High Wych, and we also have a baptism at St James, High Wych in the afternoon at 3.00 pm.Please pray for Isabel and her family as they bring her to be baptised. Her brother comes to our Jim’s café for Year 7’s and it has been a pleasure to get to know the family over this year.Looking forward to meeting with you again soon.Every blessingAlison
