Fr. David's 10th Anniversary

A big thank you to you all for the special cake and drinks to mark my 10th anniversary as Vicar. Matthew & Alexander enjoyed eating me although they weren't too sure about the ears! Thank you too for the card and the two books. (Letters of Graham Green & the Mitford Sisters) They should make a change from St. Paul! Lynn says thank for the flowers & the boys for the chocolate oranges.  Yours as ever.  Fr. David

Working party: Saturday 10th November, from 9am to 12noon

Advance notice of our Autumn working party on Saturday 10th November, from 9am to 12. We shall be gardening, creating a new hedge and generally tidying up the grounds before the winter. Please come and help! With some willing hands, we can achieve a lot in a short time. Refreshments are excellent, you don't need expertise and it's all good fun. Marilyn

Eva Griffiths is now walking well enough to open her front door, and would love to see anyone from St Matthew's.

Operation Christmas Child

All Saints South Oxhey are organising a collection this year. If you would like to take part please collect a leaflet from the back of the church.

Used Stamps

There is a box at the back of church for used stamps which Phyllis is collecting for Dogs for the Deaf.  Please leave stamps in the box in a bag or an envelope to make it easier to take away.  Thank you.

Evening Prayer

Do you miss this lovely service, once a regular in every Anglican church? It is now said once a month in Hillside, and extras are always welcome. I am always glad of volunteers to read the lessons, and to keep the momentum with the psalm and responses. It is 1st Thursday in every month, and you will see old friends who now live there! Put it in your diary, and we hope to see you there.  Sally
