September – Eleventh Sunday of Trinity
Collect
for Today
God
of glory,
the
end of our searching,
help
us to lay aside
all
that prevents us from seeking your kingdom,
and
to give all that we have
to
gain the pearl beyond all price,
through
our Saviour Jesus Christ.
Post
Communion Prayer
Lord
of all mercy,
we
your faithful people have celebrated that one true sacrifice
which
takes away our sins and brings pardon and peace:
by
our communion
keep
us firm on the foundation of the gospel
and
preserve us from all sin;
through
Jesus Christ our Lord.

NOTICES
Ride
& Stride - Saturday 14th September at All Churches
We can all help to raise some money for the
church on this day. Sponsor forms are now in all the churches for this
event which is organised every year by the Leicestershire Historic Churches
Trust. Nearly every church door in Leicester and Leicestershire will be
open on this day, including Great Glen, Burton Overy and Carlton Curlieu.
You can cycle ride or walk around as many churches as you like.
Please support the day in some way - cycling, walking, or manning our own
churches and of course sponsoring any who are riding or striding. All money
raised is shared equally between the church of your choice and the
Historic Churches Trust in Leicestershire which gives grants to churches to
help with restoration costs
Ride
and Stride Help
I am looking for people to 'meet and greet'
all those who will be participating in this event. There is a list on the table
for anyone to add their name who are able to sit in church for one hour, offer
visitors a drink and biscuit (this will be provided) and sign their sponsor
form.. Many thanks, Carol Neal.
Planned Giving
If anyone would like to make a regular weekly gift to the church through
the weekly envelope scheme (yellow envelopes ) I have a spare set for the
year beginning September 1st available

A personal thank you
from Kim:
Dear All, Thank you so much for your
continuing prayer as I await my surgery. I am sorry for the rolling coaster
ride that ensued during this time of waiting and hoping. As far as I know the
surgery is planned for Thursday morning around 9 am. If for some reason it does
not happen again I will return and wait until it can be more certain.
In the meantime however I would like to ask you for
specific prayers:
·
One that a high dependency bed will be available on
Thursday (this was the reason for cancelling last time)
·
Two that as they remove the large growth and
retracted the tubes that my windpipe will NOT collapse, which is their fear at
this moment and the reason for the high dependency bed.
·
Three that it will happen this time so I can recover
and get back to all that God is doing with us as a church family.
Thank you all for your love, care, prayers and
patience during this time. Every blessing Kim
Advance
