If you have been giving a little bit of thought to how you could do something to help out please make today the day you give it a lot of thought.
In the past 12 - 18 months we have had volunteers move away and/or retire from active service in some areas. These gaps need to be filled.
I have included the names and phone numbers of the contact people for the Faithbuilder, Tea & Coffee, Flowers, Musicians and Bible Reading rosters in the printed version of this weeks Order of Service. Alternatively you can contact me or Gary and we will direct you to the right person.
