St Peter’s Church, Boughton Monchelsea

25 July 2010  

 

 

Village quiz – enjoy a gentle stroll around the centre of Boughton Monchelsea and seek the answers to this local observational quiz. Copies cost £1, to support Friends of St Peter’s, and are available at the back of the church or from Jilly, 01622 743336. There will be a £20 prize and the closing date is September 20th.

 

Bibles for school leavers over the years we have given bibles to the leavers of Boughton Monchelsea Primary School . The cost this year is £13.50 and we are giving 30 bibles. if you would like to help us, please place your donations in the bowl at the back of the Church.

Church open for visitors – subject to services and  the availability of our volunteer guides the church is open every Saturday, Sunday, Wednesday and Bank Holiday afternoon until Harvest (3 October).

Gift Aid – to those many of you in our congregation, most of you indeed, who enhance their support for St Peter’s ministry by entering into Gift Aid, thank you.  Please do let me know if your tax position changes, as all tax recovered must be covered by tax liability.  You need to be a tax payer for Gift Aid to apply to you. (I do realise that you know this well, but we are required by HMRC to remind donors.) If you have not yet entered into Gift Aid to help us, and you are a tax payer, please do come and join us in this.  It involves you in no extra giving; and it is truly of great benefit to the church.  David Sayers.  

Urgently required we need more drivers for our minibus which is a lifeline for members of our congregation.  We operate a rota which means you would only need to be available every 4-6 weeks, and it only takes about 30 minutes before and after the service to pick up and drop off.  If you have experience, this would be a great advantage, but it’s not a necessity. We may be able to arrange training for anyone who does not have experience but is keen to join us. If you are interested but not sure, you can come along with one of the current drivers to see what is involved.  Contact Ian Edwards 07718 246 821 if you would like further information.

Welsh Male Voice Choir recording available – Diana Fletcher has produced copies of the wonderful concert on June 21st.  If you’d like to hear one, please ask Diana or ring her on 744913.

Deadline for September parish magazine August 12th.  Please send copy to Stephen at sandc.lehegarat@btinternet.com

Members of the Prayer Ministry team are available after every service to pray with people.  They will usually be wearing a name badge.

The church office is closed and all enquiries should be to Yvonne on 842598 or Margaret on 744415, or email margaret.greig@tiscali.co.uk. Keys can be collected from Margaret at 69 Lewis Court Drive.
