God of heaven,

you send the gospel to the ends of 
the earth and your messengers to every nation:

send your Holy Spirit to transform us

by the good news of everlasting life

in Jesus Christ our Lord.

Family Movie Night

THIS Friday 1^st February – 5.30pm

St Cuthbert’s

You are invited to join us on the 1^stFeb to watch the movie ‘Up.’ The movie is about, "Carl Fredricksen, a 78-year-old balloon salesman, is about to fulfill a lifelong dream, that he promised his dying wife. Tying thousands of balloons to his house, he flies away to the South American wilderness. But curmudgeonly Carl's worst nightmare comes true when he discovers a little boy named Russell is a stowaway aboard the balloon-powered house.” Rated U.

We will be providing a meal and snacks for the movie on the night so the tickets will be £2.50 per adult and £1 for children under 16 to cover the food. Please sign up so we have an idea of how many to cater for. Hope you can join us.

Please note: There will be no choir practice on this evening.

Community of the Tree of Life

Commissioning of Isaac Ford

Today we say goodbye to Isaac as he leaves on Saturday for the Community of the Tree of Life. Isaac wants to say a huge thank you to all of you who have been an encouragement to him, prayed for him and given money towards his new journey. It has meant a lot to him and he will say a personal thank you to all of you at coffee time. Please join us in the village hall after the service for tea and cake, everyone is invited.

Advance notice (save the date)

5^th March, 5:30pm, St Cuthbert’s Pancake supper and Beetle Drive

We would like to celebrate Shrove Tuesday and the beginning of Lent with a social event as we launch into Lent and journey towards Easter. More details in due course.

Sound and Vision

We are now developing more services using sound and vision; using the digital projector and mixing the sound to get more people involved in helping to set up and "tech" some of these services both at St Andrew's and St Cuthbert's. If you think this is something you could help with, please speak to Dave or Simon.
