General News for both parishes (unless stated)
DAVID KERRY is running the London Marathon on the 26th April, and raising funds for the Alexia Wilson Trust. There is a form at the back of the church if you wish to sponsor him. Thank you.
LENT & EASTER APPEAL. The Archbishops of Canterbury and York have called upon members of our Church of England parishes to stand alongside the church people in Zimbabwe in the midst of the most awful humanitarian crisis. St Andrew's people are using their "Smartie Box Collection" towards this help. After each of the Services at St Mary's today there will be a Retiring Collection for this purpose. Pink Gift Aid envelopes are available to enable the value of your gift to be increased by the Tax Man.
A SERVICE OF REMEMBRANCE for those at St Mary's and St Andrew's who have been bereaved - Sunday, 26th April, at 3pm in St Mary's - to remember those who have died recently. Details are available in both churches, or by telephone from Shirley Walker (872310).
CAN YOU GIVE AN HOUR A MONTH TO THE SERVICE OF ST MARY'S? The gallant band of church cleaners is being depleted by a combination of age, weariness and illness. There is space for you on each of the teams. The camaraderie makes the task more pleasant. So, please offer your help via Vera.
BAPTISM - 19th April. On Sunday 19th April our children Thomas and Elizabeth are being baptised following the family service. We would love to invite as many people as possible to stay and join with us in celebrating, supporting and welcoming them into the family of Christ. Jane & Lee McKean
