Post
Communion Prayer
We
praise and thank you, O Christ, for this sacred feast: for here we receive you,
here the memory of your passion is renewed, here our minds are filled with
grace, and here a pledge of future glory is given, when we shall feast at that
table where you reign with all your saints for ever.

NOTICES
Advance
Notice:
Sunday 27th October, 10:30 am
– Team Launch service at St Peter’s Church in Oadby. The bishop will be with all five churches to launch our team. There
will be no morning services in Great Glen or Burton Overy as it is important
that we all show our support as we go forward as a team together.
The Bishop’s Big
Conversation the first weekend in November.
The weekend with the Bishop is a time where we can
share our faith with our communities. It is a time to come out of the church
and share with others the love of God. So I hope that many of you will join in
some of the activities across the weekend and bring along any friends that
might want to know it bit more about who God is or why things are happening in
our world. No question is too big or too small to ask.
So
here is what the weekend will hold:
Friday-
1st Nov
9:00-12:30 St Cuthbert’s School assembly, question
time and lunch.
2:00-3:30 Tea & Cake with the Bishop in the
village hall in Great Glen. This event is aimed specifically for those who are
60+
4:30 Free Tea and coffee to be served to those
waiting for Fish and Chips. The Bishop will be open to answer any questions.
7:15-8:15 Royal Oak, free drink for those in the pub
who would like to engage the Bishop with questions that might have.
8:15-10:00 Pug and Greyhound, free drinks again for
those in the pub with questions for the Bishop
Saturday-
2nd Nov
9:00-10:15 am Breakfast Buffet at the Pug and
Greyhound. Cost is £10 a head but this one is a very specific event. The idea
is that if you buy a ticket you will be given a free ticket to bring someone with
you who is not a Christian, someone who would like to know more about who God
is. There will be breakfast with the Bishop and his team having conversations
around the table as we enjoy the meal and then the Bishop will give a short
word at the end of the time there.
10:30-12:00 Story time with the Bishop for toddlers
and young children in the Community Library. There will be stories, crafts, tea
and coffee.
3:30 pm tea and cakes in Burton Overy village hall at 3:30 pm
Sunday
3rd Nov
The Bishop and his team will be joining us for both
services.
9:00 am at Carlton Curlieu and
10:30 am at Great Glen. We will have a bring and
share lunch after the 10:30 service so please do sign up to bring some food to
share. It will be a great way to finish our weekend together.
As
you can imagine this is going to take a team effort so please do think about
what events you can help at and how you can be a part of this exciting
adventure of sharing God’s kingdom with our neighbours and friends. There is a
sign up sheet at the back of church please have a thing about how you can join
in.
If you have a friend to
bring to breakfast on the 2nd of November please buy your tickets
from Kim or give her a call on 259 2238
