EVENTS IN NOVEMBER 2024


SATURDAY 2ND NOVEMBER, 10.00 am-12.00 noon (Kirdford churchyard)

+ Churchyard working party

The large burial ground at St John's needs constant maintenance so that it remains a place to honour those buried there and to help its role in contributing to the biodiversity of the village.

This month there is an emphasis on tidying up the War Graves in our churchyard in anticipation of Remembrance Sunday.

Please come along and help for a while, bring a few suitable tools - refreshments provided!



LOOKING FURTHER AHEAD


SUNDAY 1ST DECEMBER

+ Last date for Christmas Gifts for Family Support Work

It's time for our annual Christmas gift collection to support families in Sussex. Any kind of gift is appreciated - but must be new. Gifts for all ages - children, teenagers, mums and dads - please bear in mind that it is often the teenagers and adults that miss out more. Labels giving ideas will be available in church.

Please don't wrap your gift as families in need will be invited to choose gifts suitable for their children and will be provided with wrapping, labels etc. Gifts can be left in either of our churches during November and the last Sunday we can accept them will be at the service in Plaistow on December 1st. This is so we can allow plenty of time for presents to be distributed in good time for the Big Day!

If you are also able to give something special for the Christmas table - pudding, cakes, fancy biscuits, savoury items, chocolates, sweets, cranberry sauce - in fact anything festive and non-perishable. Again, by 1st December please.

Thank you.
