COMING SOON! FLORAL DEMONSTRATION Tickets priced £5.00 are now on sale for ‘MIDSUMMER MAGIC’,  a floral demonstration at St Paul’s by Liz Edwards, which is on Monday 22nd July at 7.30 pm. Liz is a very talented floral artist with some great ideas for making a few flowers look stunning. There will be refreshments on sale; all proceeds towards St Paul’s Flower Fund. Please phone 07913283218 for ticket enquiries.

CHILLI AND TOMATO PLANTS for sale, priced 50p. Please leave your money in the basket. All proceeds towards the fabric fund for our window repairs. Thank you

OLD VESTRY CARPET Does any church member have a carpet shampooing machine that we could borrow for an hour one Wednesday or Friday please? (Jane and Jo are happy to clean the Old Vestry carpet during the school holidays whilst the Centre isn’t quite so busy.)  Please see Murray, Ken or Cathy if you can help. Thanks

CHANGES IN ZIMBABWE We currently support three organisations: Senior Citizens Service (run by Dave) who provide a clinic for poor, retired, mainly white Zimbabweans.  Good Hope Orphan Care, supporting Aids orphans.  And finally Food for Homes Bulawayo, who provide food for people in care homes who would find it hard otherwise to provide food for residents. The last of these (Food for Homes) is closing down.  This is for two reasons, first there is now more food available for people to buy and second the organisers have other commitments which they need to attend to.

I have talked this over with Dave and with the support of the PCC have decided that we continue to support the two projects Senior Citizens Service and Good Hope Orphan Care with funds divided equally between them, rather than the three way split at present.

THE MARY SUMNER DAY SERVICE will be held at Doncaster Minster on Friday 9th August at 2pm.

MOTHERS’ UNION SUNDAY   on Sunday September 8th is a day of prayer for the work of the Mothers’ Union. Please will you pray for our work & ministry in our diocese and throughout the world.

GREETINGS CARDS There are new cards for sale on the bookcase in the Meeting Place priced 50p, 75p or £1.00. All money raised goes to the church Fabric Fund. (Card sales raise about £50.00 per year.)  Please pay Jacqui or leave money in the basket provided. Also on the bookshelf are some interesting & thought provoking DVD’s.  Please borrow, view, then return for others to enjoy. Thank you


COMMUNITY NEWS
THIS WEEK! SHEAF CITIZENS ADVICE BUREAU has its AGM on Wed 17th July at 4.00 pm at St Mary’s Community Centre, Bramall Lane. The meeting will be followed by a buffet and the aim is to finish by 6.00pm. Please see the notice board at the bottom of the stairs for more details.

NORTON LEES RESIDENTS ASSOCIATION - PUBLIC MEETING on Wednesday 7th August at 7.30 pm at the Bishops’ House. This meeting will be an Extraordinary General Meeting to determine the future of NoLRA. Whilst we have not had a public meeting for some time, we feel it is important to keep the group together even when there are few important issues to address. That way, when the estate does face a problem, NoLRA is in a position to fight on the residents’ behalf. In order to continue positively, NoLRA needs volunteer members. It doesn’t take much effort, so please come and say hello at the meeting.

PEEKABOO Please get in touch with the new leaders if you would like to help with toy washing & replacing batteries on 28th August - telephone & email contact details in “What’s on.”  As before, please see Liz Whitwam if you’d like to join the Peekaboo refreshment makers list.  Thanks

From Murray
This week my friend Steve from Dubai called in!  He is actually on holiday in England at the moment and is visiting Universities with his youngest daughter, so they stayed the night with us prior to an open day at Sheffield Uni.  As ever it was good to see them and to hear how they are getting on.  He said he was glad to be away from the heat – it is in the 30s every day over there at this time of year and can even get up to 40o C!  Christ Church Jebel Ali continues to thrive and he is planning to run an Alpha course in the Autumn (a well know introduction to the Christian faith a bit like my own Questions! Questions!)
