The numbers continue to rise every month, and, with the grace of God, and the dedicated members of the Group, we are able to perform this vital service. Please join us on Monday 2nd March at 1pm. If you have specific prayer requests for intercessions during worship please speak to the vicar. Church Family News & Prayers A note from the Dean: “Dear Friends, His Excellency The Lieutenant Governor and the Bishop of Dover have encouraged me to take a short sabbatical to recharge the batteries. Daphne and I will be off duty from Feb 23 until the beginning of May. It is such an encouragement that everything is in Chris' and Carolyn's very safe hands. Yours in Christ, Bob” Flower donations.
