Help Needed!
Experience Easter
This year we are inviting local school children into church to ‘Experience Easter’. In order to set up one of a series of prayer stations around the church building, I need an enamel jug and Basin.
If you can help with this requests, please let me know.
With Thanks, Suzanne.
Confirmation Classes
In the very near future, I will be running Confirmation Classes.
Confirmation, marks the point in the Christian Journey at which we affirm for ourselves the faith into which we have been baptised. These classes will be a time when we could journey together no matter whereabouts we are on that faith journey.
If you would like to learn more about the Christian faith and join us, whether you are baptized or not, please do see me/contact me by the end of January.

Warning from Longlevens Neighbourhood Partnership
Whilst general crime levels are similar to last year there has been a recent increase in theft from motor vehicles in Longlevens.
Offenders have been stealing sat navs, cradles, charger cables, cash, and CD’s from vehicles left insecure on driveways and roads over night. Please ensure that extra care is taken to remove all valuables from vehicles when unattended.

Calling all Holy Dusters!
Our loyal band of ‘Holy Dusters’ has been in existence for a long time and several members of the band now feel that they can no longer manage the work required. The Church is large and keeping it clean and tidy is no small task.
We urgently need new volunteers to replace those retiring from the job. It is not too time consuming – about 2 hours every 5 weeks. We have had to reduce the number of groups as we have lost members so we hope to welcome at least 4 volunteers.
Further information is available from Betty Taylor (527015) or Doreen Wintle (312813)
CHARITABLE GIVING
At our Harvest Thanksgiving we donate the cash collections together with the monies raised at the Harvest Auctions and from the Harvest Supper to designated charities.
