Christian Aid Tea Time Many thanks to those who supported this one with donations and their presence. Yu will be pleased to know that £65 is on its way to Christian Aid.  Sally

 

Harvest Festival

We will be giving our harvest donations to Watford New Hope Trust and while they are grateful for all items received the priority needs are: sugar; instant coffee; tea bags; spaghetti/pasta; tinned meat; soup; squash (especially orange and Ribena); stock cubes/gravy mixes and antibacterial hand wash.  It is easier for them to store items in tins and jars rather than packets. Donations of money are always needed and you may prefer to give this way rather than with goods.  Pip

 

Broom cupboard We are looking for a cupboard for brooms etc, to place in the entrance lobby of the Hall. A glance at the space available will show that it needs to be quite narrow, but if anyone can offer e.g. a single wardrobe with one door, please let me know. Marilyn Tel.239273

 

The Shrubs between the Hall and the Church are beginning to win the fight with the weeds, but they still need help. They would appreciate a kind volunteer to spare an hour to weed the side I hadn't time to do last week - any offers? Marilyn

 

Book of Remembrance

Please can you let me know of any names you would like recording in the remembrance book as I plan to send pages to the calligrapher for entering soon. Fr. David

 

Cedar Tree

Following on from the report from our tree surgeon recommending felling of the Cedar tree because of the high risk to person and property the PCC have given the go ahead for the work to be carried out. It will take place shortly over several days.
