CHURCH BULLETINS
From St Mary’s PCC For nearly two years the Covid pandemic has affected everyone, changing how we interact with families and friends. How we meet and greet each other. Where and who we can meet up. We are all still mindful that even though there is a vaccine to combat Covid the virus is still with us. Apart from how each of us, as individuals, have been affected many businesses, both large and small, have had financial hardships with some not being able to carry on. St. Mary’s church was no different to the Covid impact. For many months there were no services, no fund raising but still bills to pay. Fortunately we now have two services a month and before Christmas had the tree festival and concert. Unfortunately, having missed out on nearly 2 years of fund raising we have very little financial reserves. We cannot meet our monthly outgoings. How to help? Publicise and support our future fund raising activities. Maybe increase your church giving; just imagine everyone giving £10 per service what a vast difference that would make! The PCC are looking to cut down on our monthly expenditure. Is anyone prepared to do our financial book-keeping? Not too onerous a job which would save us £140 per month. Give it some deep thought. Your Church needs you. Contact Nigel on 01983 406817.
Vicar's Blog Time with Goats… It is amazing how therapeutic and joyful goats can be. Conversation flows and people smile. Sitting outside surrounded by their unconditional love it is easy to feel close to God. For me, the pastoral references Jesus uses time and again make sense when we see ourselves as connected to the earth, and through this connection, each other. So if you want a chat we can meet at your house or out in nature. Just call.
