General News for both parishes (unless stated)
25TH ANNIVERSARY NEXT SUNDAY. Come and celebrate The Friends of St Mary's 25th Anniversary on Sunday 14th February. Join in a Service of Thanksgiving; see the displays of the things The Friends do; meet past and present Friends - and join them if you like; but most of all, come and say "Thank you" for all that The Friends have done over these 25 years.
SCRIPTURE UNION MATERIALS. There are some SU guides on the table by the south door of St Mary's. These are to help anyone who's interested in finding ways of understanding what they read in the Bible. Further information is available directly from http://www.scriptureunion.org.uk or, more locally, from sue.pegrum@stmarysgreatdunmow.org.uk.
RESIDENTIAL HOMES. Every month we take Services in 7 Residential Homes in Great Dunmow, for a total of about 70 people. Some Services are Communions, others are Hymn Services. The residents who come to these Services value this external link enormously. Sometimes there are 2 or 3 people who go to take the Services - sometimes it's just 1. If you would like to come along to meet the people, talk about this and that, and help just by being there - please speak to David Ainge.
TOPICAL STUDIES IN LENT. Churches Together in Dunmow has arranged a remarkable set of speakers to lead our three sessions of Lent studies. Under the overall heading of "All Change on the Weather Front" they will help us to understand some of the issues relating to Climate Change. They are all experts, but they are also people of the people - they speak so that all may understand. See the details on the Notice at the back of church, and book the dates in your diaries - and COME!
INVITATION TO THE ARK. On Saturday 13th February, Pastor Philip Knight will preach at his 15th Anniversary Service at the Ark Baptist Chapel in Dunmow. The Service begins at 3.30pm, and we are invited to be represented at this Service. It would be a great encouragement for mutual conversation if a few members of St Mary's and St Andrew's could go.
RUBY PIGRAM. Mary Jensen would like to thank all those who have supported her in so many ways since the death of her Mum. Your cards, telephone calls, practical help and especially your prayers have been a great comfort at a very sad time.
OUTLOOK DELIVERER NEEDED. There is a vacancy for someone to deliver the Outlook magazines in The Downs and Rosemary Crescent. If you can help please see David Ainge or Patrick Whittick.
COFFEE ROTA 7th February: Rosemary Ayles & Sheila Stoneman 14th February: Friends Committee members
