General News for both parishes (unless stated)

25TH ANNIVERSARY TODAY. Enjoy today's celebration Service for The Friends of St Mary's 25th Anniversary. Spend time over refreshments after the Service to 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.

TEA FOR HELEN. You are invited for Afternoon Tea (2pm-4pm) at the offices of Paul J King, Funeral Directors, Tudor House, Church End on Thursday 18th February. A cup of tea and cake/biscuit will cost £1.00, and this will support the Helen Rollason Cancer Charity.

FRIENDS OF DUNMOW CLINIC. On Saturday 27th February the Friends of Dunmow Clinic have their Fun Music Quiz in the Foakes Hall. The doors open at 7.00pm, and the Quiz starts promptly at 7.15pm - so you'll need to get your skates on. Tickets cost £8 per person, and there are 8 seats on each table. The cost includes a ploughman's supper, but not drinks - so bring your own and the glasses for them. Tickets are available from Claire Reeve (873768), and further information from Sue Pegrum.

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!

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.
