Apostleship of the Sea – Sea Sunday 14th July

Today is Sea Sunday, when the Church prays for all those who live and work at sea.  Without them we would not have most of the items we buy in the shops.  Today’s second collection is for Stella Maris (Apostleship of the Sea), the Church’s official maritime welfare agency.  It supports seafarers both practically and spiritually.  This collection is vital to enable it to continue its work, so please give generously and remember seafarers in your prayers.  Thank you.  To donate online please visit www.apostleshipofthesea.org.uk

Help Needed Please:  Due to the retirement of one of our wonderful volunteers, The Link Coffee Shop is in need of a volunteer cook to prepare and serve meals.  If this is something you could possibly help with, please pop in to The Link or phone Kay on 01323 441142.  Thank you.
