In January 2025 the episcopal electoral process moves into the next stage. On Saturday 11 January clergy and lay electors will meet the short leet of candidates to hear about their vision for the Diocese and to have the opportunity to pose questions. A week later, on Saturday 18 January the electoral synod will convene again to vote. Please keep the process in your prayers.

The First Sunday in Advent (Sunday 1 December) will be a “Soupa Sunday”, with various soups on offer over the hall after the morning Sung Eucharist.
We have a new “Prayer Tree” in the church hall. If you’d like prayers to be said, write your petition on the tickets provided and hang it on the tree. Some of your petitions will be prayed at Morning and Evening Prayer; others will appear in the Sunday Intercessions.
