Pork Supper - Advance Notice/Date for your diaries
On Saturday the 6th July we are having our Pork Supper at 2
Stretton Road. This year we want to make the occasion more of a family focused
affair so we are looking to start the event from 4.00pm with a children's
entertainer at 4.30 - 5.30.
Following this the food will then be served, first to the
children. The cost will be £10 Adult and £3 for children. Tickets are available from Roger Flowers, Kim and Dave Alexander
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.

30th June
Sarah’s Ordination
Please remember Sarah in your prayers. She has moved to her new house,
completing assignments and preparing to be ordained. There is so much to take
in during this time both exciting and scary so I would ask that we as a church
would hold her in prayer during this time.
You
are invited to join her for an open house and buffet to celebrate her
ordination
at
1:30 on the 30th June at her house, 18 Boulton Court, Oadby.
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.
QUIET PRAYER AND MEDITATION.
We shall meet again at 3.30pm.on Wednesday,
10th July at our home - 20,
Kingfisher Close.
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. If you would like to know more,
please phone Christine Higgins on 259 2624 - or just come along. You will
be very welcome.
Please

Bibles for year 6 students each year we, as a
benefice, give the year 6 students at St Cuthbert’s Primary School a Bible as a
leaving gift. In the past there hasn’t been many students but as the school has
grown there are now quite a few students. So this year I am asking if people
would like to donate the money for a Bible. The cost is £6 per Bible and there
are 40 students this year. If you would like to donate money towards the Bibles
there is a box at the back of church.
New
Greeting Cards all
very reasonably priced. Some birthday cards in the box on the table are just 50
pence. Prices are on the envelopes and money to be put in the yellow box that
is in with the cards. The sale of these cards goes to support the work of
the Mothers Union at home and overseas.
