MEMORIAL SERVICE. At 3.00pm on Sunday November 4th St Mary's will host another Memorial Service for bereaved families.

As ever, you will be very welcome at this Service.

OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD. Over 1 million shoe boxes full of goodies were delivered last year to children who, otherwise, would not have had a Christmas present. This year, it is hoped that that achievement will be bettered. See the information at the back of church.
ST MARY'S SIDESMEN: your December Rotas are in the pigeon holes. Pick up you copy before you leave church.
ADVERTISING IN OUTLOOK. The new-style Outlook is taking shape very nicely, and will be available from early January. The Publicity Group is steadily accumulating the necessary advertising to pay for the production costs. Does anyone have contacts with local firms, pubs, restaurants, hotels, small businesses, etc. who you might be able to approach to take an advert? We really need all the help we can get to complete this task. Check with Patrick Whittick or Sally Rippon before making any approaches - this should avoid firms feeling annoyed by being asked twice.
COFFEE ROTA 28th October: Nan & John Doe 4th November: Marion & Anthony Tuttlebee 11th November: Pat & David Rose 18th November: Pam & Ray Cheal
