Table Top Sale
We are holding a table top sale on Saturday 30 November from 10 am until 2 pm in the church hall to raise funds for Christ Church. If you are thinking of having a good old clear out before Christmas, why not take a table (cost £10) and make some money towards the cost of Christmas by what you sell. Please sign the sheet on the table at the back of the church and pick up a leaflet for passing on. Invite your family and friends either to participate or to come along. If you’d like to help on the day, please speak to the Curate, Jackie.

It’s getting close to the time for ordering the next edition of the booklets. If you’d like one, please sign up on the sheet at the back of the church.
