Summer Garden party 18th July: help needed to set up (from 9am) and take down (4pm). Offers to help run stalls is greatly appreciated. We also need items to sell and prizes, such as bottles, unwanted gifts, books, handicrafts. Cakes on the day (with ingredients listed). Does anyone have a gazebo they could offer for the day? Please speak to Wendy Howell for more information.
Sunday 19th July we welcome Revd Sarah Eden-Jones who will be taking our 9:30am service.
Organ repairs: The repairs have begun, which means the organ will probably be of action for the rest of July.
Eco tip: Plastic Free July this year is focusing on the microplastic pollution from laundry. Fibres from synthetic clothes shed tiny fibres during washing and drying. These enter the sewage systems and are hard to filter out. What can we do? Use a microfibre bag or ball to catch the fibres. For more detail, click here.
Revd Kevin is on holiday until 21st July: if there are urgent pastoral matters, please contact Christine Bartlett: pccsecretary@saintbarnabas.org.uk
Regular giving to St Barnabas: If you consider St Barnabas is your church, please support our mission and ministry. The best way is to give regularly through the Parish Giving Scheme (click here). Or see the ‘Giving’ page on our website.
