Donations are welcome for MARAH and the FOOD BANK. There is a collection point at the back of church..
MARAH APPEAL – Christmas is fast approaching! We are asking for large boxes of biscuits and chocolates (such as Celebrations or Quality Street). They are often on special offer at this time of year. If you can donate any of these, we would be very grateful. Also, would anyone like to bake us a Christmas cake? It can be any size with icing, please, but not necessarily decorated, but strictly NO alcohol. Just let me know if you can help. Thank you! Jackie Natt.
INTERCESSORS MEETING – We’ll be holding a meeting for intercessors and those who may be interested in becoming intercessors on Monday, 18 November at 9.30 a.m. It's a lovely opportunity to come together for fellowship, encouragement and prayer. If you feel drawn to intercession or would simply like to learn more, please do come along – you’d be most welcome.
STROUD WOMEN'S REFUGE – Once again, Minchinhampton church members have shown great generosity toward this vital and sadly much-needed charity. This year’s wish list includes children’s toiletries (bath gel, shampoo, flannels, toothpaste, toothbrushes) and mums’ essentials (dental and sanitary products, deodorant, shampoo, conditioner). A collection box will be in the Porch Room from Monday, 10th November to Thursday, 4th December. For queries or collections, please contact June Sidwell – 01453 873785. Thank you for your support.
ROSE WINDOW – Work on restoring the Rose Window will begin next week. Scaffolding will be installed in the Lady Chapel during the week commencing 10 November, with deglazing scheduled to start the week commencing 17 November. Services and groups that use the Lady Chapel will still be able to do so while the work is underway. However, if necessary, alternative arrangements will be made to relocate services or groups to other suitable spaces.
RAFFLE AT THE QUIZ – At the Church Quiz on 15 November, we shall hold a raffle, and if you have anything suitable that you would like to donate as a prize, I shall be most grateful. Thank you, Stephen Jarvis.
FRIDAY LUNCH CLUB – The next Friday lunch is on 21 November. All are welcome for a two-course lunch. We are accepting donations on the day for both the church and Masasi. There are signup sheets at the back of the church to assist with catering, and those who have dietary requirements. Further details, Linda, or Stephen Jarvis 884545.
HELP NEEDED – We are looking for some homemade cakes to be provided for refreshments being served throughout the day at our annual Christmas Craft Fayre. If you can help provide a homemade (only) cake – ingredients named, please drop off in the Porch Room on Friday 28 November. Thank you
