Steve has very quickly become an important member of staff and will be missed. He will be doing some consultancy work for the Parish so you will see him around the office at times. We wish him all the best. St Nicholas Christmas Fayre, 5th December and Christmas Tree Extravaganza 5 – 12th Dec Yes, we are only three weeks away from this annual event and we need you to search through your drawers and cupboards urgently and donate all your unwanted gifts, bric a brac and items to make up our very successful basket table. A full list of what is needed is included. We need clean, non chipped mugs, empty baskets or suitable items to make up hampers (eg large pot for gardening hamper), items for children’s tombola, quality raffle prizes and bottles of any sort for our very successful bottle stall (eg wine, beer, cider, soft drinks, sauce, in fact, anything that comes in a bottle!). We need volunteers to run the raffle, help on the bottle stall and refreshments. Also to help on the bric a brac stall, station game and other stalls. Please volunteer even if only for an hour. Finally, put the date in your diary and come along and help on the night – or if you can’t manage that, can you spare some time in the week prior to help sort, pack and label items. Speak to Sandra in the church office about any of the above items – 01753 880067. Also On the Friday night and all day Saturday, the parish church will be open for people to view the Christmas trees (and listen to the choir on the Friday!). There will be refreshments and entertainment on the Saturday too. Please let me know if you can come along and church sit for an hour at any time on Saturday. Tearfund Ebola Crisis Appeal Some of the poorest countries in West Africa are facing national emergencies as they wrestle with the deadly Ebola virus outbreak. The disease is leaving countless children orphaned, stretching poorly resourced health services to the limit, hitting national economies and putting back development gains by years. If you would like to donate to this cause then we will have an envelope in the Parish Church Office.
