At Communion Services
If you
are a communicant member of a Christian Church, you are welcome to come up to
receive the bread and wine. Otherwise
you are welcome to either remain in your seat or come up to receive a
blessing. Keeping your hands down by
your side will signify to the Vicar that you wish to receive a blessing. If you have difficulty coming up to the
Communion Rail and would like the Vicar to come to you, then please inform a
sidesman.

NOTICES
THE CECILIAN SINGERS: One of
Leicestershire’s leading mixed voice chamber choirs will be paying their first
visit to sing in St Cuthbert’s Church on Friday 8th December at 7.30
pm. Wine or soft drinks and mince pies
will be served during the interval.
Tickets cost £12.50 for adults and £5 for children and are available
from Moira.
QUIET PRAYER AND MEDITATION:
The next meeting is on December 13th at 3.30pm at 20, Kingfisher Close. It is an opportunity for
some special moments of peace in a busy world. Everyone is welcome to join us. We would love to see you,
CHRISTMAS FLOWERS: If you would like to make a
donation towards the cost of the Christmas flowers at St Cuthbert’s Church
would you please hand it to Phyllis Hallam, Carol Neal or Lyn Flowers.
CAROL
SINGING: There will be a short choir practice on Thursday 7th December at
7:00 pm at St Cuthbert’s for anyone who would like to
join us in singing at the YEWS on Sunday 10th and/or Saturday 16th
December.
DERADA, TANZANIA: As
most of you know we have been supporting a church in Tanzania helping them to
build their church building. Once completed it will become a community centre
for the village as well as eventually being used for a school. They are now on
the last phase of building and we would like to give them another gift; to
finish the build. The cost will be
£2900. All throughout December we will
have a box in the back of church for you to make donations. Would you please pray whether or not you can
help us reach the goal of helping them finish the project. Thank you!
CHRISTMAS
CARDS: Our
annual Christmas cards will be delivered in the next week or two. If you
normally deliver cards it would be good if you would be willing to help. If you
have not helped before it would be great to have help, especially on the new
estates. Also this year we will have a Magazine to hand out together with the
Christmas Cards that will share the love of Christ with others in the village.
So please do help if you can.
LADIES NIGHT OUT: The December Ladies
Night Out has been booked and names already given to Mo – since we had to book
numbers for this busy time. The January LNO will be on Wednesday 17th at
7.30pm, Oadby Grange Farm pub. February date is 21st. Any enquiries
or lift requests please e-mail or ring Mo, thank-you.

RAFFLE PRIZES FOR CARLTON CURLIEU:
This year after the Carol Service we are going to have a small
raffle during the refreshments. We are looking for a few good quality prizes to
help us raise money for the church. Please contact Kim if you have anything
that could add to the prizes for that evening. Thank you for your help.
CARDS FOR
GOOD CAUSES: Cards for at least 25 charities are now being sold at the Multi
Charity Christmas Card Shop in St Martin’s Square, Leicester, Monday to
Saturday 10 am to 4 pm until 14th December.
LIFTS
TO SERVICES: If you
need a lift to any of our services, please contact Rev’d Kim for Great Glen or Richard
Bloor (259 2440) at Burton Overy to arrange one for you.
WHY NOT put an
extra can or tin in your shopping basket to bring to church services. St Cuthbert’s supports Leicester Cathedral’s
Welcome Group for destitute asylum seekers and St Andrew’s supports a homeless
charity. No biscuits, cereals or any
other packet foods please as the mice are quite partial to these.
Please pray for:
·
Mollie Alexander, Margaret
Bannister, Sue Burnham, Christine Higgins, Katherine, Mike and family, Eileen Spencer, Elizabeth Tacey,
Martin Tacey, and all who are ill
·
the soul of Angela Oatway
·
Zoe Hunt who will be baptised at St
Cuthbert’s on Sunday 3rd December
