CHURCH FLOWERS:
After the sombre weeks of Lent, it was a joy to see the Church glowing with colour after the efforts of the Church Flower Arranging team on Easter Saturday.
Despite the problems of damaged and limited foliage after the snow, the ladies produced many beautiful arrangements in yellow and white around the Church.
I am most grateful to them for their generosity of time and skill and also to those people who made donations towards the cost of the flowers. Your support is much appreciated.

ST PETER’S CLUB :
March saw us continuing to follow the events of Lent and Easter. The older children study this in greater depth than the younger group. The table showed examples of their work including an alphabet frieze of pictures related to the church season.
When it came to the Easter Egg hunt though, age was no barrier.
St Peter’s Club meets every Thursday during term-time in St Peter’s Church. It has changed recently and all children will meet from 5.00 pm to 6.00 pm. It is based on a series of small workshops suitable for all ages. Come and see!
There will be no meeting on Thursday 30th May as it is half-term.
Why not come and give us a try, coffee and biscuits for adults if you want to stay and watch.
For further information please ring Ann on 624371.

CHILDREN IN CHURCH :
Do you have small children? Do you worry about bringing them to church in case they make a noise? We understand this concern but would like to reassure you that at Barford there are toy bags for children and you are welcome to take one to a corner at the back of the church and let them play there. At Sherbourne too there are toys for children at the back of church.
We would be happy to welcome you at any of our services but you may find 9.30am services on the second and fourth Sundays of the month at Barford to be most suitable for young people and third Sunday services at Sherbourne at 11.00am.
We look forward to welcoming you and your children.
David Jessett
