We will be decorating the church for Christmas on Saturday 21^st December from 9.30am.  Please come and help if you can.  We will need greenery to put around the church and on the window sills and white flower arrangements with possibly 

a hint of silver.  Christmas is a very special festival so the Church should look its best!

We will also need help clearing up the Church on Tuesday 7^th January from 9.30am.  Don’t forget to come and collect any baskets, vases, etc., which you have used.

Date of next meeting:

Our next meeting will take place on Wednesday 15^th January 2020 at 10.30 for 11.00am. at Thistley House, Gosmore, home of Anne Steel.

We are continuing our annual sponsorship of the church floodlights which costs £15 per week and we have 52 weeks to fill.  If you would like to participate please sign the list which is at the back of church as soon as possible.  You may sponsor as many weeks as you wish and you may wish this to be in memory of a loved one, to celebrate a birthday, a wedding, or anniversary, etc.

Cheques please if possible, made payable to ‘St. Ippolyts Church’, as this makes

it easier to track who has paid.  If you wish your sponsorship to be anonymous, please write ‘anonymous’ in the name space and put your donation in an envelope just stating the week(s).  Please pass all monies to Roger Cox.

I would like to offer a huge thank you to all who have contributed in any way to our Christmas shoebox appeal this year.  So many people have again contributed time, money, goods and effort (as well as filling and wrapping the odd box or two!).

A heartfelt thank you to ALL of you on behalf of Link to Hope.  The 35 boxes that we collected this year are already on their way across Europe and I know that they will be greatly appreciated by those who receive them this Christmas.
