All Notices

This successful addition to our general publicity and community information is now in its third month. Linda Kirby Organ reminds members of the congregation to lift additional copies from the church for those you know who cannot get to church and those who were thinking about coming to church. Please feel free to pass the newsletter to your friends and acquaintances so that they can read about our activities. Linda would also like to hear from anyone with items of interest to be published in our Parish Newsletter and the Lauderdale News; by the end of February please.

See left hand menu for download of the February edition.

Easter

Please let Rev, Griggs know of any thoughts you may have for Holy Week and activities associated with Easter. The Publicity Team hopes that our Easter Programme may be drafted by early March so that detail can be included in the Lauderdale News and the March Edition of the Parish Newsletter.
