A very warm welcome to Archdeacon Barry and his wife, Suzanne, to the service at St Mary’s Brading this morning. Do stay for coffee and a chat after the service.
St Mary’s Church are holding a Coffee Morning with the Brading Community Choir, Farmer Ralph, cakes, cream teas, stalls and a raffle on Saturday 11th July from 10.00am in the hall. This is raising money for the Daisy Bus as well as the church.
St Helen’s Church BBQ and Teddy Bear Hunt. Saturday 11th July from 12.30pm. Book a place with Sarah [07546 735640] or Sue [01983 568761]. £10 per ticket to include sausage, burger, bun and salad, served with a soft drink. £5 for children and a family ticket for four people is £30.

Haven Fellowship, our Bible and Prayer meeting is at St Catherine’s chapel, St Helens on Wednesday July 15th from 6:30pm - 8.00pm. Join us for a light Agape supper of bread and cheese, and then explore God’s Word. Please let Caroline know if you are coming by text to 07533 083401 for catering purposes.
St Helen’s Church are looking for volunteers to make and serve coffee after church. Four people would mean only once in two months, so please help us to continue doing this. We are also looking for more volunteers to lock and unlock the church. This would be on a weekly basis, and again, the more people we have, the less you have to do it (ie four would mean once a month.) Please offer your services to Rev Karen 07591 240640, or Sue Whitewick 01983 568761. Thank you in anticipation.
The Church Hall at St Peter’s has been undergoing a renovation, led by Wayne and needs a coat of paint to finish stage two. We are looking for a party of volunteers who could help us to paint the walls! All equipment and refreshments will be provided. The dates set aside are 18th - 20th July and many hands make light work! If you, would be willing to come along and help with the painting we would be very grateful. If painting isn’t your ’thing’ but you can make tea/coffee that would also be wonderful. Please do let Rev Karen know if you can help.
St Helen’s Church are holding a Coffee Morning on August 15th (NB change of date) from 10.00am until 12.00noon in St Helens Community Centre. Homemade cakes, tea and coffee will be served and there will be a Raffle, cake stall and book stall. If you would like a stall to sell your homemade crafts please do let them know.
There will be an Organ Recital in St Mary's Church, by Edward Tait on Thursday 20th August, commencing at 7.00pm. Programme: Purcell- Lillibulero, Elgar- Vesper Voluntary No1, Edward Tait- Improvisation, Elgar- Vesper Voluntary No 2, Edward Tait- Vectis Tableau No 1 (WP). Free, with a retiring collection.
