4. Auction Postponed

   Posted on 10:34am Friday 5th Feb 2016

   A big thank you to the many people who have offered time, skills or items for the Grand Fundraising Auction. Unfortunately, due to slow sales of the tickets the organising committee has decided that the Grand Fundraising Auction set for 20th Feb will be postponed.
   
   However, you now get two for the price of one!

   1. Mini Auction of Perishables.
      After the Mothering Sunday service on 6th March (joint service starts at 10.30am) where time-dependent items and some gifts will be auctioned alongside a healthy dose of great coffee, nibbles and soft drinks.
   2. Musical Social.
      In May (date to be confirmed) in The Old Church where the majority of items will be auctioned. Keep your eye out for more details soon.

5. Lent 2016

   Posted on 2:09pm Monday 1st Feb 2016

   There is lots going on over Lent this year at St Mary's - be sure to see one of the postcards at the back of church or look at What's On.

   We will be looking at how we live out - as individuals but primarily as a church community - our mission statement: Our calling is to share the loving hospitality of God, seeing Christ in friend and stranger.
