You are warmly invited to Sung Eucharist, led by Revd Karen, in St Catherine's Chapel tonight (Sunday 6th July) at 6.00 pm. The Chapel is in the St Helens Community Centre, Guildford Road.
Do please come along to the next Coffee Morning in St Mary’s Church Hall from 10.00am on Saturday July 12th with The Brading Community Choir providing entertainment, stalls, homemade cakes, chat, Farmer Ralph and a raffle.
Hymns and Pimms. Saturday 19th July at 3.00pm: Choose your favourite hymn to be sung at St John the Baptist Church in Yaverland. Voting envelopes will be in each church until 1st July. After we have raised our voices in song we will gather on the lawn for Pimms and nibbles. Non alcoholic drinks will be available. All welcome to come along and sing and socialise. Parking available in the neighbouring farm.
The winners of the June 8 Bell Club draw are - 1st No.96 Angela Evans, 2nd No.28 Pat Stay, 3rd No.8 Lesley Attrill. Many thanks to everyone who supports the Bellringers fund-raising, their next event is a Teddy Bear Parachute jump from the Church tower and a Zip wire in Church on Sunday 20th July starting at 2.00pm. Do come along and bring your bears!
Intercessions Preparation Session led by Revd Karen. Saturday 20th September at 10.00am at The Vicarage: Intercessions are a vital part of many church services, offering an opportunity to bring the needs of the world, the church and individuals before God in prayer. For those tasked with leading these prayers, crafting meaningful and relevant intercessions can be both a privilege and a challenge. This session aims to equip intercession leaders with the tools and inspiration to write their own prayers. Refreshments provided.
Please note that donations for the Seaview Mothers’ Union tombola stall (summer fete) cannot be left in the porch of St Peter’s Church in Seaview. Donations can be left at 28 High Salterns, Seaview. The MU article incorrectly stated the drop off point for donations as the church porch. Thank you.
County Press tokens for Schools: Do please collect the tokens from your County Press and take them along to your local primary school. Rev Bev is happy to collect them for Brading Primary School (there is a tub at the back of church).
The July issue of our parish magazine, 'What's On', is now out, and copies are at the back of each church, price 60p. To make sure you get a copy each month, why not take out a subscription? For just £6.00 p.a. it can be delivered to your door, thanks to our amazing band of volunteers! Contact Paul or Mary Jackson on 01983 872326 to get set up.
