WEEKLY EBULLETIN Are you interested in finding out more about what is happening around the Diocese and the wider church? If you have a computer look at the St Paul’s web site at www.stpaulschurchandcentre.org.uk. Click on Links, then “Diocese of Sheffield” and then click on The Weekly ebulletin on the right hand side of the screen where events and news from around the Diocese can be found. There are also links on the St. Paul’s web site to other sites that may be of interest such as the MU and the Church of England. The pages about St. Paul’s are currently being updated by Jana and the office staff. For those who don’t have a computer some of the material is printed on the back of Link each week.

INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY – 100th Anniversary Sheffield City Council in partnership with other local organisations, including Sheffield Faith Forum, are organising city centre events to celebrate International Women’s Day on March 5th & 8th. Stories are being collected and The Faiths Forum particularly wants to encourage women of faith in Sheffield to contribute. Groups within faith communities are also being encouraged to hold their own events. There’s additional information on The MP notice board.

REQUEST- VOLUNTEERS I am currently looking at developing a streetwatch locally. This is a community patrol by volunteers and supported by the Police. I am particularly interested in developing this to support the work of the street based teams so the emphasis would be very much on positive engagement with young people. Please have a look at the Streetwatch.org website for more details.  http://www.street-watch.org.uk/ . If you would be interested in taking part or know anyone who would then please get in touch. Thanks for your continued support

FRIENDS OF BISHOPS HOUSE There will be a members meeting of The Friends of Bishops House in The Upper Hall on Friday 11th February between 7.30–9.30pm. If anyone would like to join on the night, they will be welcome. (Joining fee £3.00) The purpose of the meeting is to brief members on The Community Heritage Weekend and to give a general update on what FOBH have been doing in the year since they formed. Please give your support to an historical gem in our neighbourhood!

GO ON! Want to see if you could get more out of life online? Whether you’re looking for a bargain, a new job or new ways to keep in touch with family and friends, computers and the internet could help. Now there’s even more “Go ON” Sheffield taster sessions – drop in and give IT a go! For venues and times please see the Community Notice Board. (Our nearest sites are at Heeley Development Trust -  62-68 Thirlwell Road, South City Learning Centre - Lees Hall Road, The Heeley Institute or The Internet Café at St Mary’s.)

LOCAL HISTORY GROUP John Brown will be doing a talk at 7.30 pm on Feb 8th on "King Arthur - Fact or Fiction?" It has nothing to do with local history but it will delve into the history of Dark Age Britain and reveal the name of the warlord who was the origin of the legend; where he lived, where he died, and where he is (probably) buried. Visitors are welcome as well as new members. The cost will be the usual £2.50 members pay on the night.
