St Marys Churchyard Tidy
The people who turn out to tidy the churchyard are mostly those who have been doing it for the last 25 years minus their children who have long left home. How about some of you young families giving it a try - it can be made a fun thing to do. In a few years time without your involvement there will be no one left to keep our churchyard looking neat and tidy. Just turn up with a few garden implements - no further training needed. Drinks provided.
For any further information please do contact
There will be an Open Day for Prayer at 25 Perry Road on July 7 from 10am to 4pm
Despite talking to his heavenly father constantly
Jesus still withdrew to a quiet place to pray.
(Luke 5:16 / Mark 1:35)
This is not a themed quiet day, but an opportunity for you to come, to draw away from the distractions of the world, and be in prayer.
There will material and guidance for those who would like to extend and explore their prayer life and a place just to be for those whose needs are a safe quiet place
to go deeper in prayer.
Come for an hour, or two, morning or afternoon or all day, the choice is yours please take this opportunity if you can.
We come together in church to worship God, to hear His word and to share the Good
news of Jesus, receiving forgiveness and renewal through His death and
resurrection.
We are sent out from church to live as Christian disciples, showing love to others
and living out our faith in all we think, say and do.
