The late Canon John Matthews. A private Funeral Service is being prepared, but please pray for Mrs Rachel Matthews and her family and friends.
Tickets for the Yankee Hog Roast and Evening of Line Dancing in the Foakes Hall on Thanksgiving Day (the 27th November) are now available from David Ainge. They cost £10 each, and the profits from the evening will go to the "Over the Wall" children's charity.
CHRISTMAS BAZAAR. St Andrew's Christmas Bazaar in Barnston Village Hall will be on December 6th at 2.00pm. Eva Percival (876510) and other church members are gathering suitable goods for sale. Any help gratefully received.
Church Christingle Service. The series of Christmas Services at St Mary's begins with the Christingle Service at 3.00pm on the 7th December. This is always a very popular Service - but there's still room for more! Encourage your families, friends and neighbours to come and share in this glorious celebration of Christ, the Light of the World.
Do you have a spare room? A young woman, now working at Croft House Residential Home in Braintree Road, is in need of accommodation for four nights (Monday - Thursday) per week. Do you have a spare room available? Would a little rent income each week help your finances? A Reference from a Roman Catholic priest is available. Contact David Ainge for further information.
A Huge THANK YOU. In the last month, St Mary's has received the promise of gifts in excess of £25,000 to pay for the necessary improvements and extension of the church heating system. The donor wishes to remain anonymous - but we give our hearty thanks for this most generous donation to the life of St Mary's.
FAITH IN ACTION's Gifts with a Difference leaflets are now available. Just the inspiration that's needed for the person who has everything!
December's Outlook is already published. Hopefully all copies will be distributed before the end of this month.
