HELP WITH OUR WORK IN SCHOOLS
If you would like to help with our work in schools, but are not sure how to go about it, Chris Pritchard from Winchester Diocese will be available to talk with us on 6th October at 7.30 in the Church Room.

Chris is an experienced teacher and former Head teacher and he will offer practical ideas of how to reach the children with the Christian message.

We need to add people to the existing team so that we could go to other schools in our parish. If you come to the meeting there is no obligation to offer yourself to join the team so do come to hear what opportunities there are.

There will be Children's Activities at 10.30 every Sunday during August.

HARVEST FESTIVAL
We shall be celebrating Harvest in Holy Saviour on 5th October at 10.30am, to be followed by a Harvest Lunch in Wesley starting at 12.15. Come to Wesley at 11.45 to see the work of S.C.R.A.T.C.H. in the Wesley Chapel. Please sign up on the boards at the back of each building so we know how many people to expect.
The Flower Team will be decorating the Church on Friday and Saturday 3rd & 4th October for Harvest Festival. If you have any fruit or vegetables for them to display, the Church will be open from 9.30am on both days.
