Fellowship meet tomorrow, 6th February at 7.30pm
in the Octagon, Lillington when Mike Young will
talk about ‘Mountains and Ambitions’.
We would like to put together a “welcome hamper”
of non-perishable food for Graham and his family
as they move into the Vicarage (around 9th
March). Please give your gift to Jo or Richard
or leave it in the Vicar’s Vestry.
In preparation for Graham’s coming in March he
has asked if we can make a photo album of the
congregation with a couple of sentences about
each of you and your role within the church.
With your permission photographs will be taken
in the next couple of weeks.
Thank you very much to the Congregation and
Choir of St. Mary’s for the lovely celebration
you all gave me on the occasion of my 90th
Birthday.
Also, for the beautiful cards, flowers and
cheque which I received. The lovely cake, which
tasted as good as it looked. You all made it a
day I will remember. Love from Gwen Pretty
Amnesty International Greetings Card Campaign
This finished on Tuesday, 31st January.. Many
thanks to the 28 who took part in it. I'm sure I
write for the wretched political prisoners to
whose lives you briefly gave light, helped
better their circumstances. Who knows, to whose
liberty you have contributed. Ted Clark

The Collect
Almighty God, who alone can bring order to the
unruly wills and passions of sinful humanity:
give your people grace so to love what you
command and to desire what you promise, that,
among the many changes of this world, our hearts
may surely there be fixed where true joys are to
be found; through Jesus Christ your Son our
Lord, who is alive and reigns with you, in the
unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for
ever.

Post Communion Prayer
Merciful Father, who gave Jesus Christ to be for
us the bread of life, that those who come to him
should never hunger: draw us to the Lord in
faith and love, that we may eat and drink with
him at his table in the kingdom, where he is
alive and reigns, now and for ever. Amen

Sunday School is open to all

it meets every Sunday morning at 9.30 a.m. in
Cubbington school, except for the first Sunday
of the month. The children are then welcome to
come into church for a Blessing and also to tell
the congregation about what they have learned.
The Edward Bear Club meets
on the first and third Tuesday of each month
between 2.15 p.m. and 3.15 p.m. for a time of
drawing, music making and listening to stories.
This club is open to all pre-school age children

Children are able
to participate in crafts, stories, and creative

On
the first Sunday of every month during the

church, beginning at 11.00 a.m. This service
lasts for half an hour and includes stories and
songs.
Children and
adults are welcome to attend this popular
service.

youth club is held on Thursdays in term time at
the Cliff Cleaver Community Pavilion.
It is open

The
children enjoy spending time with their friends
in a warm and friendly environment.
There are

resources and games consoles are currently being
purchased.
There are
a few spaces available and registration forms
may be obtained from Cubbington Newsagents in Queen Street.
The club is non-profit making and any donations
or equipment would be welcome, as would anyone
who has skills in music or craftwork, which
could be used with the children.
