Carol Service
This year’s Carol Service will be on 16th December at 6pm. Caroline Lester (carolinelester@rocketmail.com) is looking for people who’d like to join the choir for that occasion. There will be some rehearsals in the run up to the service. If you would like to join, do let Caroline or Marion Lee or Mtr Ariadne know. If singing in a choir is not your thing, do come to service and sing along with the congregational carols. Thank you.
St Nicholas Event
Our St Nicholas Event is on 8th December 3-6pm. Tickets: £5 per child (£7.50 per family) – includes disco and fun activities for the children. Do, please, put this date in your diaries. Do also let Olivia know if you are able to help on the day (christchurchcomms@gmail.com). We could also use donations for the raffle and for the children’s tombola. Many thanks.
Exploring Faith
A new course (on the Eucharist) is starting on 26th November at 8pm at the Vicarage. If you would like to join us, do come to the session in November (please, let Mtr Ariadne know). This session is for both new and not so new Christians – for anyone who wants to find out more about what it means to be a Christian.
Special Collections
There will be special collections to raise funds for exceptional costs that were incurred in 2018 (Boiler for the hall £3k) + Stonework repairs (est £5k). There will be a retiring collection each week. It is also possible to donate on line (sort code 30-99-88 account number 00160666 - Reference Special18). Thank you!
Crib Service
We are looking for children and young people (Year 5 and above) to help with the Crib Service at 4pm on Christmas Eve (mainly with the readings and prayers). If you (or in the case of parents: your child) would like to help, please, let Mtr Ariadne or Sue Peach know. Caroline Lester will be looking for younger children to help with the tableaux during the service.
Housing for Women
A very big thank you to all who gave to our Harvest Collection for H4W. All of the donations have now gone to them. Thank you! We will now start to collect items for our Christmas collection for them. The school will be collecting toys for the children in the refuges and we will be collecting items for the women: toiletries, warm socks, hair brushes, small umbrellas, etc. Basically, small luxury items to make the women feel pampered. Thank you!
