Benefice Service: on Sunday 30th June we are holding a Benefice service to celebrate The Patronal Festival at St Peter’s in Seaview at 10.00am. Please do make an effort to come along to this service (only five came to the service for Corpus Christi which was disappointing). We can arrange lifts if necessary (see your church warden). The service will be followed by a Bring-your-own Picnic lunch in the church garden. Teas and coffees will be supplied.
There is a Parade service to commemorate the D-Day landings at 11.15am in St Peter’s church, Seaview, today (9th June). All are welcome and it will be followed by a BBQ at Seaview yacht club for those who would like to come.
The MU Agape service at St Peter’s is at 10.00am on Thursday 13th June to which everyone is welcome. This is followed by the committee meeting at 10.30am.

On Saturday July 6th there is an open Cafe in St Mary’s Church Hall, starting at 10.30am. There will be the usual stalls and the Brading Community Choir will be singing so come along for coffee and a chat, cake and a sing-a-long.
