Easter Decorating
We will be decorating the church for Easter on Saturday 15th April from 9.30am. All will be welcome to bring their flowers to arrange in the church and pre-arranged baskets are also welcome. Coffee and Hot Cross Buns will be served. Please don’t forget to remove your arrangements when the flowers have faded.

“The Annual Parishioners Meeting” (to elect churchwardens) and “The Annual Parochial Church Meeting of the Parish of St. Ippolyts” will be held in St. Ippolyts Church at 8.00pm. on Tuesday 28th March 2017. Everyone is welcome to attend but only those on the St. Ippolyts Church Electoral Roll may vote at the second meeting. The meeting
is the Church’s AGM and there will be a review of 2016 with reports from the churchwardens, our treasurer, and St. Ippolyts School, as well as the appointment of officers, sidesmen and independent financial examiners. To make the evening ‘go with a flow’ there will be wine, soft drinks and nibbles available.
The Church Electoral Roll is closed 15 days before the Annual Parochial Church Meeting and this means Monday 13th March. Please check on the roll, which is in
a file at the rear of the church, to see that you are registered and your details are correct. If you are not on the roll and wish to be, there are forms available at the back of church, which should then be handed to Nicolas Watson, our Electoral Roll Officer, or a Churchwarden.
We are looking for new members of our Parochial Church Council. If you are interested in playing a key role in the future of our church please consider putting yourself forward for election, it is not a particularly onerous task!
Michael Hooper
