If you feel that you could help us with this important task do please sign up on the sheet at the back of the church. Once names have come forward we will put a rota in place. This is the job description:
• Open the church by 9am.
• (In Winter check that the heating has come on & switch on the door heater above the front door)
At the end of the service
• Check all the lights are turned off.
• Lock up St. Stephen’s room and place the key back under the sink in the vestry.
• Ensure that the church is left in a reasonable state for the next event.
• Lock up the church as you leave.
If you are able to help it would make a big difference to our Sunday morning’s.
Thanks,
James
There will be a Deanery Confirmation Service in Fishbourne Church on Thursday, November 23rd at 7.30pm. If you would like to be confirmed please do speak to James or Stephen. In my time here our Confirmation candidates have ranged from ages 11 to 80 – my only stipulation being that children must be at Secondary school before they are confirmed. So if God is prompting you to take this step please do! Confirmation classes for candidates from our Benefice will begin sometime in October. We are likely to be meeting on a mid-week evening in the St. Stephen’s room. James
If all our regular givers (PGS, Pink envelopes, Direct Debits, Standing Orders) were prepared to increase their giving by £5 we would cover our current outgoing costs and put ourselves into the black!
As many of you already know, on the 24th June I will be abseiling down the UK’s highest freefall abseil tower, the ArcelorMittal Orbit in London in aid of The Pituitary Foundation, a charity I have been supporting since my Pituitary Tumour when I was 16. The charity provides much needed support for those affected by Pituitary disorders and their loved ones including support groups, information leaflets, an advice line and awareness seminars.
I want to thank everyone who has already donated so far for their generosity and remind people that there is still time to donate should they wish to do so. Sponsorship forms can be found at the back of both churches and you can also sponsor me through my online justgiving page: www.justgiving.com and searching for Jo Hutchinson. Any donation would be gratefully received.
Thank you, God bless,
Jo Hutchinson
