Ascension Day - Thursday,
May 30th, 5:30 pm. A chance to climb to
the top of Burton Overy Church Tower. Come at 5.30pm - children must be
accompanied by an adult. A short service will be held at the top of
the tower and at ground level to mark the Ascension of Jesus, so please
come even if you don't want to climb the tower. Refreshments after.
The
flowers in church for Blooming Burton Overy were a delight. The church was filled with some wonderful arrangements. Our
special thanks to Sally Muir and Jo Taylor for organising this event, which
raised over £2000 towards Kidney Research, St Andrew's Church and the Village
Hall. Children enjoyed 'Name the lamb' - it was Dusty!
Ascension Prayer Flags are here again. This time of the year we are pray from Ascension to Pentecost for our
nation, our friends and our family. There will be prayer flags for you to write
the prayers that are on your heart. Also this year we are becoming a team and
as a team we would like to pray together. You will receive a prayer card today
to ask you to pray each day for one of the 5 churches: St Cuthbert’s, St
Andrew’s, St Mary’s, St Peter’s and St Paul’s. We are also asking people to
stop each day, wherever you are, at 12:00 pm from the 30th May to
the 9th June and pray the Lord’s Prayer. The most effective prayer
we have.
Please Pray for:

entertainer at 4.30 - 5.30.
Following this the food will then be served, first to the
children. The cost is yet to be fixed but will be announced as soon as we have
estimated costs for the food.
Please put the date in your diaries and we hope to see as many of
you there as possible.

We will just stop again for an hour in a busy world - to meet with God
and each other, in an oasis of peace and calm.

259 2624 - or just come along. You will be very welcome.
St
Cuthbert’s Theology Reading Group - Our St. Cuthbert’s
Theology Reading Group invites anyone interested in exploring further their
Christian faith/ knowledge, to join us at our monthly house meetings. We decide
on a recommended book, usually by eminent Christian authors, which we read (one
or two chapters at a time) and discuss over several meetings. Our discussions
are usually lively and informative with the Rev. Philip Norwood giving us an
experienced, guiding hand. Our next book, starting in June, is “God with us” by
Rowan Williams.
Next
meeting: Tuesday 4 June, 7-30pm.

Have you ever thought
you might want to serve the Lord in some way within the church? There are many ways to get involved both big and small. Here are some of
the ways you can at St Cuthbert’s:
·
Bell ringing- we have a great
opportunity for people young and old to learn how to ring our lovely bells. If
you are interested please speak to Roland Cook.
·
Choir – the choir is looking for new
members young or old, experienced or novice, why not have a go? If you are
interested please speak to Moira Bartlett.
·
Intercessions- if you like to pray
we are looking for more people to intercede during both the 9:15 and 10:45
service. Please speak to Gemma Herrick for 9:15 and Carole Henson for 10:45 if
you are interested.
·
Reading- if you like to read we are
looking for more readers for our 9:15 and 10:45 services. Talk to Sarah Collins
for 9:15 or Amy Cook for 10:45.
·
Sides people- if you love to
welcome people we would love to have you on our team at the 10:45 please talk
to Amy Cook.
·
Coffee Rota- do you like
bringing a smile to people’s faces than why not serve them so lovely coffee in
between the two services? Please talk to Kim if you are interested.
·
Sound and Projection - Dave and
Simon would love someone to help with sound and projection. When one of them is
unavailable they have to manage both by themselves. It is also likely that
there maybe a Sunday where they are both committed to volunteering outside the
church. If you are interested please
contact Dave Alexander.
