Meeting to discuss ‘Children & Families worship/services
This is in the planning stages at the moment and is due to take place on 21st February. Further details will be shared soon but if you would like to take part in this discussion then please let Steve know. All input and ideas welcome.
8am said communion services
The PCC have reviewed these services and due to very low numbers have taken the difficult decision to reduce this to once a month. The 8am services will now be on the second Sunday of every month when the 9.30 service is a family service. The PCC will keep this under review.
Defibrillator
The church has leased a defibrillator which has been placed outside of the church hall on the lower level. If anyone would like to contribute to the ongoing running costs for this please contact Michael, Sue or Chris. We would like to thank the ‘Sewing Group’ and Tea & Co. for their donation.

If you know of anyone who needs a visit, please do contact Revd Steve on 07789 692996 and he will arrange for him or someone else on the pastoral visiting team to visit them.
