Next Sunday is our Annual Meeting which is an important occasion when we get to hear about the work of the PCC and Churchwardens over the last year, review our church life and you can make comments and suggestions to help in the mission and work of our church.  As usual we elect Churchwardens and a number of PCC members.  This year the PCC has agreed that to have an additional ‘Assistant Churchwarden’ who can help contribute to the work of the team.  Now that we have the Centre, there is a lot of extra responsibility so it will be good to have an additional person knowing what needs to be done.  Please read through the Yearbook – available today – in preparation for the meeting next week.
