This Saturday at noon our church bells will ring for a special reason.

Helping Out
Like every church and organisation in the land, the last 18 months and the lockdown has seen some people who were active volunteers no longer able to resume their role.
We have a strong tradition at St Mary’s of all getting stuck in and playing an active part in the life of our church, so I do encourage you to consider what you could become involved in.
We need more:
- Church cleaners
- Welcomers at 8.00 am and 9.30 am Sunday services
- Flower arrangers
- People on the church coffee rota
- Coffee on the Common volunteers
- New members on the mowing rota
- Helpers with our children’s work
Please speak to Will or one of the churchwardens if you can help in any of these areas. At the end of the day, St Mary’s is what we make it in this and every generation, so do think and pray about this.
We’d love you to join in with these things with us.
Organ Recital by Simon Pusey: POSTPONED
We were really looking forward to Simon’s organ recital for charity this Sunday. Very sadly, following a positive Covid test, this has had to be postponed and will not take place.
It will be rescheduled but, being realistic, is now likely to take place sometime in the new year. We wish Simon well as he isolates.
It is a timely reminder that it is worth taking a lateral flow test at least a couple of times a week and this is a good habit that helps to keep us all safe and well. There are free lateral flow test kits available to pick up in church – so do help yourself and keep doing this regularly please.
On Sunday 14 November at 3.00 pm Simon Pusey will very kindly be giving a charity organ recital at St Mary’s. .
Sonata no 1 in E flat major Bach
Hebrides Overture Mendelssohn
Suite from Water Music Handel
The Arrival of the Queen of Sheba Handel
Admission will be free with a retiring collection to support The Beacon School in Ghana with which we have a longstanding and very precious link.
Please do spread the word and encourage your friends and neighbours to come along as well. All are welcome and it would be great to have their support and enjoyment of the concert also.
