Congratulations to Sparklers
for raising £140.00 for Dr Barnardo’s in the Big Toddle. This is a national event in which toddler  groups are asked to ‘toddle’ in aid of this worthy cause. We toddled from the Methodist Church Hall to the Recreation Ground in Great Glen and had fun on the swings and roundabouts and ate cake!

Thank You to Simon Harwood,
The church wardens and I would like to thank Simon as he has come forward to take over the job of
treasurer for St Cuthbert's PCC. Please pray for him as he takes on this new role.

Post Communion Prayers 
22nd July:
Strengthen for service, Lord, the hands that have taken holy things;
may the ears which have heard your word be deaf to clamour and dispute;
may the tongues which have sung your praise be free from deceit;
may the eyes which have seen the tokens of your love shine with the
light of hope; and may the bodies which have been fed with your
body be refreshed with the fullness of your life; glory to you for ever.

29th July
Holy Father, who gathered us here around the table of your Son to share this meal
with the whole household of God:
in that new world where you reveal the fullness of your peace,
gather people of every race and language to share in the eternal
banquet of Jesus Christ our Lord
