Collect for 21st after Trinity:
Almighty God,
in whose service lies perfect freedom:
teach us to obey you
with loving hearts and steadfast wills;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Post Communion Prayer:
Father of light,
in whom is no change or shadow
of turning,
you give us every good and perfect gift
and have brought us to birth by your word of truth:
may we be a living sign of that kingdom where your whole creation will be made perfect in Jesus Christ our Lord.

Collect for Last after Trinity:
Merciful God,
teach us to be faithful in change
and uncertainty,
that trusting in your word
and obeying your will
we may enter the unfailing joy
of Jesus Christ our Lord.

Post Communion Prayer:
God of all grace,
your Son Jesus Christ fed the hungry
with the bread of his life
and the word of his kingdom:
renew your people with your
heavenly grace, and in all our weakness 
sustain us by your true and living bread; 
who is alive and reigns, now and for ever.

Evening of Prayer
18th November at 7:30 pm
This evening is open to all Christians in the villages and we again gather to pray for the village, the people and the work that God is doing in and among us. It is important to keep on praying for our village for all of the things that God is doing, for all of the changes that are coming and most importantly that we stay in tune with what God wants for us to do. So please do come and join us as we pray for our villages.


Trip to Oberammergau 2020
I am organising a trip to Germany to see the Passion of Christ which, only happens every 10 years. Professional actors portray the Life of Christ and bring it to life as you watch his story unfold, done throughout various part of the village indoors and out. This has taken place for over 500 years in this little German village, so if you are interested please do send me an email. It will not be binding, I am simply trying to see if there is enough interest to form a larger group from our area. kimberleykford@aim.com
or 259 2238.


MU Christmas cards that were orders are now in church ready for collection. Please let me have the money at your convenience as I have paid for them personally. If you want to give me a cheque please make it payable to
Mrs. T. Cook. (NB I’m not at church 4th )
