CHURCH BBQ This year’s Summer BBQ is on Friday 30th August at 7.00 pm. Tickets £4.00 from Liz Warren, Margaret Blakey and Barbara Hanson. Please let us know your food requirements (Beef burgers, Lamb burgers, Pork Steaks, Sausages, with Salads and Bread) by filling in the form on the bottom half of your ticket, and then hand it to Liz, Margaret or Barbara. Remember to bring your own drinks and for any special requirements, please see Liz. We hope you can come and look forward to seeing you!


GAS BARBEQUE Does anyone have a spare Calor Gas bottle that they don't need?  Church has been given a Gas Barbecue, 1 kind person has donated a gas bottle but it would be good to have a spare which we can always keep full so we'll be confident of not running out half way through an event.  Please have a word with Ken or Liz. Thank you
 



LAVENDER If anyone would like some lavender, please help yourself from the border by the oak door. It will help the gardeners if you could cut it back well, please.

DATE FOR YOUR DIARIES: PRAYER DAY 2013 On Saturday 14th September from 10.00 am to 4.00 pm, St Paul’s will be holding a Prayer Day “Meeting God in the Natural World” at Longshaw Moorland Discovery Centre (which is close to Fox House on the A6187 Hathersage to Owler Bar Road, or can be found on your Sat Nav at S11 7TZ).

The cost is £5.00 each, (as long as 18 people attend the day). This includes drinks, but not lunch or car parking. The day will include time for silent prayer and will end with a simple Communion Service.  Because there is only one room, we are very sorry, but it will not be possible to provide separate activities for children. If you think you might be interested, please complete a form and give it to Murray today. Thank you

FUTURE MESSY CHURCH DATES  Messy Church @
St Paul’s is a morning for families with children, including art & craft activities, a short creative worship time and a light lunch. Please phone 2551945 for more info. or visit messychurchstpauls.blogspot.co.uk
MessyChurch@St Paul's - Autumn & Winter dates – 7th September, 19th October – Harvest Messy Church, 14th December – Christingle Messy Church (- all Saturdays) from 10am - 12.30pm including lunch. Do invite children and parents & carers and if you can help, please let Sarah, Pete or Ann know.

FOODBANK Please remember to check that all food is in date – probably not a problem from here but from other sources!

M.U. Mothers’ Union Sunday on 8th September is a day of prayer for the work of the Mothers’ Union. Please pray for our work and ministry in our diocese and throughout the world.  Please also note: St Paul’s & St James’ M.U. AGM is coming up soon on Wednesday 11th September.
Diaries & calendars for 2014 can now be ordered. Please see Jacqui as soon as possible.
“MIDSUMMER MAGIC” FLORAL DEMONSTRATION The event raised a brilliant £141.70 towards St Paul’s Flower Fund. Many thanks to Liz Edwards for a lovely evening.  Please see the leaflets in the MP for “Derbyshire Delights” at St Peter’s Church, Edensor, this week from Saturday 10th to Sunday 18th August from 10.30 am to 5.00 pm. Cost £4

THE NAVE WINDOWS   Murray has now heard from the Church Burgesses. They have agreed to meet us half way with the amount that we requested in our first bid for a grant, and suggested we approach the Diocese for matched funding (a further £2,500.) It’s looking as if we will be able to get the worst affected window repaired before winter comes, but we will still need to forge ahead with applications for funding for the remaining windows. 

CHRISTMAS! If you are interested in joining a bell ringing team to perform at the Christmas Tree Festival on Sat 23rd Nov, please contact Jacqui. Date for your diary:  there will be another planning meeting for the Christmas Tree Festival on Mon 9th Sept in the Old Vestry at 2.30 pm. Come and help to make it a really special weekend. Bishop Steven will be joining us at our 10 o’clock service on Sun 24th Nov, so please remember to put the above dates in your diaries!

FROM GAIL If anyone can come to support Gail when she is authorised as a parish evangelist at Doncaster Minster on Saturday 21st September at 11am, please let Gail know as she is thinking about getting a coach and sharing with
St Chad's, depending on numbers. Gail would also like to thank everyone for their help, support, encouragement and prayers as she has been training. If anyone wants to know about her training, Gail will be very happy to share more.
