Notices of the Week of 13 October 2025

MUSIC WORSHIP EVENING, 30 NOVEMBER, 6.30 pm – 8.30 pm
This will not be a service as such, but simply a couple of hours of praising our God together through music. This will be a time to enjoy singing and making music together, worshipping God, and encouraging one another.
Everyone is welcome irrespective of your musical ability. There will be different groups playing different songs throughout the evening and we will follow a clear programme to help everything flow smoothly.

A WELCOME FOR PHIL
As a Holy Trinity welcome for Phil and Bec we are going to ‘fill their cupboards ‘ as a surprise when they move in. Donations of tinned, non perishable, household items can be left in the labelled box in the porch. After the morning service on 19 October the items will be taken to the Vicarage to await their arrival. Thank you.

INSTITUTION AND INDUCTION SERVICE
We are now weeks away from welcoming Phil and Bec to Holy Trinity. Please keep the date free! The service will take place on Wednesday 12 November at 7.00 pm at Holy Trinity. Please let us know if you can help – if you receive a request – to help to aid our planning for this very exciting service.

Friday 14 November, 7.30 pm. Easy listening hits from the 50s to the 90s (and accompanying quiz). Raising money for Christian Aid.

ST JOHN AMBULANCE PUBLIC AWARENESS SESSION
The St. John Ambulance team are running a free public awareness session on Monday the 17th of November starting at 8pm in the Arches.
They are wanting members of the community to join them, learn about hands only CPR, how to use a public defibrillator and place someone in the recovery position.
The demonstration session will run for just over an hour, then there will be the opportunity for some hands only practice for those who want to take part.
The session is suitable for adults or children age 12 upwards. it is okay not to be able to do CPR. This is an awareness session, so people who can’t get up off the floor or kneel down are welcome, they could tell someone else what to do in the event of an emergency.
The more people who are not afraid to get a community defibrillator out and use it, the more people are given a chance of life!

On Fridays Cafe In The Park are also going to experiment with a ‘Cartoon Cafe’!
They have found that children love to draw guided cartoons – because it’s a lovely way for everyone to draw pretty impressive images! They have some laminated sheets with simple steps to draw an assortment of characters and animals. All children must be accompanied by an adult.
