If you are new to our churches please pick up a copy of our Welcome Booklet from
the back of the church. Inside are details of our services and activities, contact
details and some information on baptisms, weddings and funerals.
Calling all Gardeners … and those who are not!
The flower borders around Stubbings church and the churchyard at Stubbings are a
delight to the eye and say a lot about the church to visitors. These are now maintained
by a small team who could really do with more help. Do you have some time to give
on a Wednesday morning? Gardening expertise is not a pre-requisite, simply come and
give a hand if you can. Please contact Tony Ruffell on 01628-626149

Estate. Enjoy Michael’s photos here>>.

Walking on a Summer’s Evening
What better way to spend a summer’s evening than walking the countryside with friends?
Sitting in the cool of the day sipping a pint maybe? Combine the best of both by
joining us on a Parish Walk - venues are still to be finalised, but there is no doubt
that all the walks will start and finish at a very agreeable pub! The dates for forthcoming
Parish Walks are Wednesdays 23rd May, 20th June, 18th July and Thursday 16th August,
all starting at 7.00pm. (please note: there are some changes from the dates given
earlier in the month—please change your diaries.) For further details please see
future Parish Notice Sheets or call Ian Bentley on 01628-630648.
Oasis Prayer Group - prayer requests
Oasis prayer groups meets roughly fortnightly, please do join us as we spent a few
minutes in quiet before God and bring our concerns and the needs of our Parish to
the Lord. If you would like the group to pray for you or someone you know there are
prayer request books at the back of each church.
Next Meeting: Tues 15th May 2.30pm, Priory Room
