INTIMATIONS 30th NOVEMBER
Flower Rota : A blank Flower Rota for January – June 2026 is now on the notice board in the Guild Room and I am looking for your help in filling up the calendar. I am very grateful to those who already generously volunteer and hope you will continue to do so. We do need more volunteers though - the more there are the better. If you are able to take a turn, even if only for 1 Sunday, then please fill your name on the rota against the Sunday/s of your choice. By volunteering, you will be providing a very important pastoral care roles in the life of our Church. Thank you. Linda.
