You are warmly invited to join us for a live variety concert on Zoom on Saturday 20th March 2021 at 7.30pm.

This lighthearted concert will feature many well-known local acts including Clive & Claire Hayward, Rod & Louise McPhee, Cress & Murray Rayner, Dom & Simon Pusey, Alexandra Yew, Bertie & David Beaman and more!

The performers will join us live from their homes, and the concert will be compèred by the Vicar, Revd Will Gibbs.

To join the audience, simply fill in your details below and you will be e-mailed a Zoom link the day before the concert. If you haven’t used Zoom before don’t worry – there will be full instructions on how to do this in the e-mail. You can join from a computer, laptop, tablet or mobile phone.

There is no charge to join the audience, however there will be an online retiring collection, in aid of our 2021 Charity of the Year, Pumps for Mpwapwa supporting a project to build a solar-powered water pump in a village in Tanzania.

Please do join us for what promises to be a really fun and entertaining evening for a very deserving cause.

If you have any queries re the concert, how to sign up or how to log on, please get in touch.

A MINISTER’S MUSINGS – Thoughts and Reflections from Lockdown is a short book Will has published, bringing together his weekly ‘Thoughts for the Week’ broadcast as part of the Redbourn Community Call that has been going on through much of the year.

Copies are £10.00 and are on sale now in church, with all the proceeds for the CFC, as we raise money for our ‘Pumps for Mpwapwa’ Appeal.

Thanks to those who gave so generously in the retiring collections following the two superb concerts by the string trio at our Patronal Festival celebrations. We haven’t counted the total amount but it will comfortably come to over £1000 towards our Charity of the Year appeal ‘Pumps for Mpwapwa’ –  a project to provide a solar-powered water pump in the village of Msagali, Tanzania, in partnership with the Diocese of Mpwapwa.

And further thanks to our Junior Choir members who took the initiative to organise a cake sale after last Sunday’s service, also in aid of ‘Pumps for Mpwapwa’. They baked all the cakes themselves and raised a magnificent £385 for the charity. Thanks to all who bought cakes and supported the stall with generous donations.
