LUNCHES IN LENT
We hope to have regular lunches available on Fridays in Lent, just as we have done in the past, but have not yet finalised the helpers to cover every week so please watch out in the village for posters to advertise these. The first one will be on Friday, 24 February and we will have a Foodbank box available then as well. This is also a joint churches in St Newlyn East enterprise.

24th At St. Enoder Church –Confirmation Service by the Bishop of Truro Rt. Reverend Tim Thornton.

THANKS
Following the Christmas tree festival and collections at special services over the Christmas period we have been able to send a donation of over £300 to the Precious Lives Appeal.

FOODBANK
Thanks to everyone in our wonderful community, the Foodbank box in December was very well supported. We know that many people would like to continue to give on an occasional basis as there is still a pressing need to support the poorest people in our area so we will continue to have a box available for donations in the church on Sundays or you can give a donation to any member of our church community. We hope that we will also be able to have a box at any of our special events in future.

WEDDING DRESS DISPLAY
On 28 April, when we celebrate the feast of St Newlina in the village with lots of great activities, we would like to have a wedding dress display in the church. This depends on having some gowns to borrow! If you would be willing to put your dress on display in the church for that weekend, please contact Linda Angove (510778) and we will see if there is enough support to make this venture possible.

LIGHT UP THE TOWER
Several people have asked for the tower to be lit too commemorate something special in their lives. If you would like to do this, there are envelopes for your donation in the church on the top of the bookcase near the pillar at the back. Just fill in the details, add £10 and put the money in the donations box and we will do the rest for you. A sign in the church porch tells everyone what the special occasion is and you will know that the tower is lit just for you.

AND DON’T FORGET…We always have secondhand books in the church (at the back). The donation is only 20p and the stock is always changing so please look in to get a new collection to read and perhaps donate any books you have read and don’t want to keep.
