All the services held in church over the Christmas season were well attended, with 200 people at the Carol Service and 60 adults and 35 children at the Crib Service. 62 people came to worship on Christmas Day.

Gifts brought by the children to the Crib Service will go to Helen House Hospice in Oxford and will delight both patients and their siblings during the coming year.

The Christmas Day and Carol Service Collections have supported two charities (£111 each) and the Children’s Society (£105).

We are still seeking some “new blood” to join the church Cleaning Rota which at present comprises just three parishioners who have had the task all to themselves for several years. Could you spare just two hours a month to help keep your church sparkling? Contact Beryl Brickliffe on 250117.
