This weekend’s Bible readings:

Hebrews 9:24-end (p 1207) and Mark 13:1-8 (p 1019)

Apology:

Apologies from the editor for missing the midnight service from the list of Christmas services last week. As you will see, it’s there now! Thank you to all the people who pointed out my mistake.

Advent service 1st December:

This Sunday, at 6.00 we have our special Advent service. Come and join us for a service of music and readings to mark the start of the Advent season.

Services and events for Advent and Christmas:

There are lists and fliers in all of our churches; please pick some up if you have someone you can invite along. If you can offer help for any of them, please speak to one of the church wardens or PCC members.

Harvest Appeal sent off:

We have sent £1,355 to Place of Grace UK towards the costs of the minibus to help John and Gillian’s work in the slums of Bangkok. Thank you to all who contributed.

Trees in our churchyards:

You may have seen that we have some storm damage in Standon churchyard, with a tree down due to last weekend’s winds, and we have known for some time that two trees at Little Munden need attention. Tree surgeons will be working in both places over the weeks to come, so please take care.
