General News for both parishes (unless stated)
CHRISTINGLE SERVICE. Today's Christingle Service at St Mary's starts at 3.00pm. We look forward to welcoming lots of visitors, of all ages. So come and share in this annual celebration of Jesus, the Light of the World.
CLOCK WINDER AT ST MARY'S. On January 1st 2010, Mike Saines will retire from his position as official Tower Clock Winder at St Mary's after 27 years' service. The PCC is seeking ways to mechanise this task, but in the meantime we need someone to step into Mike's shoes until the mechanization is complete.
CO-ORDINATOR FOR THE ST MARY'S BRASS CLEANING ROTA. Grahame Thomas has stepped down from this role after 15 years in post. We need someone who will continue his good work with immediate effect. The length of responsibility is negotiable!!
SHORT-TERM VACANCY - DELIVERER OF OUTLOOK. There is a need for temporary cover for a delivery round of Outlook for January, February, March and April. 58 magazines need to be delivered on the Woodlands Park Estate - to houses in Woodlands Park Drive, Barberry Path, Aspen Terrace, Laburnum Road, Walnut Drive and Holm Drive. If you can help, please contact Patrick Whittick (876404). Thank you.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH. We are very grateful to Don & Gaynor Potter for the gift of our Christmas tree, and to Steve & Sam Wright who have put it in place and dressed it with the lights.
FAITH IN ACTION - GIFTS WITH A DIFFERENCE. The brochures showing alternative suggestions for Christmas presents are now available at the back of St Mary's.
MANY THANKS to everyone who worked so hard to make last Sunday's Celebration Service, and yesterday's Christmas Bazaar, such a success. As a result of everyone's generosity nearly £1,000 has been sent to Christian Aid, and St Andrew's Church Funds have also been helped substantially.
CAROL SINGERS WANTED. The Barnston Brownies will be singing Christmas Carols at the Village Hall on Tuesday 8th at 6.00pm. We are invited to come and sing with them. Also a few members of St Mary's have asked about the possibility of going Carol Singing around the streets in part of Dunmow on the 21st and/or 22nd December. This will be possible, if more people (of all ages) can join them. If interested, please speak to Patrick Whittick or Anna Beecroft as soon as possible.
