Early Advent Course
A group of 10 parishioners from our three village churches are getting together on an Advent Course. We could take an extra couple of people but no more. If you would like to join the group, please contact Marie-Rose Low at marie_rose.low@btinternet.com.
If we get more than a couple showing interest, you would need to organise yourselves into another group with leaders. Our course will run on 4 consecutive Mondays starting on 10th November (I know this isn’t Advent, but we chose to go early).
Please pray for the unity of the church and its mission to serve the wider community. It is important that the church stays together during this time.
Please pray for support for the paid staff of the church it’s church wardens and PCC who will take over the day to day running of the church. It is important that no one feels overwhelmed or overworked.
Please pray that people will take up more roles and responsibilities, that there will be more volunteers, and the workload will be shared out in larger groups.
Please pray for wisdom and direction for the leadership of the church. Especially the PCC as the put together the Parish Profile and start the process of choosing a new rector.
The usual Morning Prayer sessions will continue to run in church (Monday and Tuesday) and on Zoom (Monday – Wednesday).
