The first Sunday in the month brings a Family Service, and the Sunday after the Ascension. As it has been half term this week, the usual role of the Sunday School in this service had to be taken on by the Adults! We followed are usual family Service liturgy, but the Presentation was made by Mrs Field, who told us something of the work being done in Sunday School and of the project to help an Orphanage near to the town of Chernobyl, were children are still having a very poor time. Any one can prepare one of the shoe boxes we are sending, please look at the display in the church for details. She then told us about the Day of Reflection which took place yesterday and is detailed below.
The Choir, both Junior and Senior together sang 'God has Gone up with a Merry Noise' by William Croft for the anthem. There was coffee after the service and a special treat banana cake to go with it!
Next Sunday is Pentecost, and it will also be the first communion in our Church of our confirmation candidates, who are to be confirmed on Friday at St Paul's Church in Chichester. Please pray
for them as they prepare to become full adult members of the Church, and join us next Sunday to share their first service with us as full members of the Anglican Communion.
