The Football Club are holding a Race night fundraiser on Saturday 23rd March at the Clubhouse.

Bar is open from 6.30pm with the first race at 7.00pm. Everybody welcome to come and have a flutter.

CHURCH SPRING CLEAN

SAT 16 MARCH 10am – 12 noon

Come when and for as long as you are able.

 

Please bring elbow grease and enthusiasm to clear away the cob webs and reach into the corners and crevices where the dust and grime collect. Also bring brooms, brushes, dustpans, polish etc. Removing dirt and dust will reveal the beauty of our ancient building. We could do with YOUR help to achieve as much as possible. Everyone is welcome. Your reward will be refreshments and knowing that working in a team can have wonderful results. Thank you ☺ .

We are looking for more Sidesmen, can you help us?

St Mary & St Lambert, Stonham Aspal with Mickfield 

The role of Sidemen is not difficult but their contribution to the life of the church is important. It enables Worship to proceed smoothly and ensures that all is ready for the clergy or lay person who is taking the service. Duties include unlocking and making sure the church is ready before the service, welcoming and handing out service books etc to the congregation on their arrival, to keep an eye out and welcome anyone who arrives late, to make sure that things are put away after the service and count the collection. You will also be asked if possible to be responsible for unlocking and locking church on the weekend that you are on duty.
If you feel you would like to be part of the team of Sidesmen please let us know, it would be lovely to welcome some new faces.
David Tydeman and Alex Pratt, Churchwardens.
