On 23rd March, at our 10.00am Service of Holy Communion, we have a special guest speaker. For a number of years, our church has been supporting financially, as one of its chosen charities, the Foundation for Relief and Reconciliation in the Middle East, an organisation better known as MOSAIC. . It is a Christian charity working across ethnic and religious divides. Its focus is rooted in local communities there and it works with vulnerable and persecuted minorities to relieve immediate needs and to assist them in securing sustainable futures. We are fortunate that the Executive Director of MOSAIC Middle East, Helen Jackson, is able to visit us on that day so all are welcome to come and join us and to hear in more detail, about the valuable work which the charity carries out. 

Mothering Sunday, 30th March 2025.
Our service on this day will be of a relatively informal nature and suitable for children and families.  There will be posies of flowers or a plant distributed to the children for them to give to their Mums or others who care for them.  Everyone is most welcome and also to stay for  coffee after the service!
 

A visit from abroad!
On 14th May 2025 there will be a meeting of our Ladies Group, from 2.30pm to 4.30pm, as indeed is usual on the second Wednesday of the month. On this occasion however, the meeting will be slightly different since we shall be enjoying tea and cake as we welcome Charles & Frances de Roemer to talk to us. Charles and Frances serve as mission partners with Crosslinks, an Anglican missionary society which enables partnerships with all churches, denominations and networks which share their beliefs. Charles and Frances, who are based in Binche in Belgium, are our link missionaries and our church supports them regularly. However, this is the first time that they have come to talk to members of the church in their official capacity so it is a golden opportunity to learn more about them – what is their everyday life like?, why do they do what they do?, what are the pluses and minuses of living in Belgium and the main issues there?, what joys and problems does their church face and how is Christianity viewed by most people?  Come and find out!
