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.

FORTHCOMING
EVENTS
The
Advent Carol Service takes place at St Cuthbert's Church
on Sunday, 1st December (Advent Sunday) at 6.30 p.m.
Mosaic
Concert on Wednesday, 18th December at Burton Overy - Many of you will remember the group Mosaic coming last Christmas to
give a concert of Christmas music. They
are very kindly coming again so look out for details of what promises to be
another lovely evening of beautiful singing.
Concert
at St Cuthbert's on 22nd March 2014 - We have booked Yvonne Bloor, an
accomplished classical guitarist and composer to give a concert. Yvonne
has given concerts in many parts of the UK and abroad and her CD "Promise"
was released last December. It promises
to be an entertaining concert given by a very high-quality artist. It will also be a fund raising event
for the Parish. Please put this date
into your diaries now. Full details or
the arrangements for the concert will be announced early in the New Year.
NOTICES
Hearing
Loop at St Cuthbert's - Work on the hearing loop at St Cuthbert's has
now been completed. If you wear a
hearing aid, adjust the switch to the T position and you will hear the service
clearly.
The
next Messy Church takes place at the Community Centre at St Cuthbert's School
on Monday, 2nd December, from 3.30 p.m. until
4.30 p.m. This is for children up to 11 years of age with their parents or carers. The children enjoy listening to a Bible story, having a drink and something to eat. They also take part in activities which usually involve much painting and creating mess! Do come along with your child/children.

Coffee
at St Cuthbert's - It is good to be able to socialise over a drink and biscuit
after the 10.30 a.m. service but we are very short of volunteers to act as
hosts. We will shortly be saying goodbye
to Jenny and Graham and then there will only be two of us who regularly serve
behind the counter. We have other
regular weekly commitments and cannot be expected to also do coffee duty each
week. There is a list of service dates
from the beginning of December until Easter on the table by the door and it
would be appreciated if some other members of the congregation could commit
themselves to make coffee occasionally, otherwise there will be some weeks when
there will not be any refreshments. You
only need to provide milk and everything else should be in the cupboard. AMY COOK
The
Charity Christmas Card Shop at Leicester Cathedral is to open on
Thursday, 17th October. The store sells
cards for more than two dozen national and local charities. The charities receive 70p from every £1 taken
(unlike charity cards bought from retailers who only give a few pence to the
charity). Not only are Christmas cards
an important source of funding for the charities, they also help to raise
awareness of their work. The shop will
open six days a week until Saturday, 14th December from 10 a.m. until
4 p.m.
4 p.m.
St
John's Advent Book 2013 - A series of readings covering the Advent and
Christmas period and written by staff and students at St John's College is now
available. Cost £4.99 per copy. For further details, please see
www.stjohns-nottm.ac.uk/adventurebook2013/

your chance to have your ears pierced and get an extra pair to take home,
too."
