Dear Friends,

THIS SUNDAY AT ST MARTIN'S
We are looking forward to welcoming you to services at 8.00 am and 10.30 am. If you are unable to join us then please remember that we also have a mid-week service on Wednesday at 10.00am

GROUP MINISTRY SERVICE AT ALL SAINT'S OCKHAM
SUNDAY 22ND MAY 10.30 am
Please note that there will not be a service at St Martin's at 10.30 am on that day as we gather with friends from All Saint's Ockham and St Mary's West Horsley. Please do join us there.

INTERGENERATIONAL MUSIC GROUP IN EAST HORSLEY
Sian and Joe who manage the Duke of Wellington are cycling from the Duke to Paris and back to raise money to fund music activities for people with dementia and their carers. We are in discussion with them to potentially host the activities at the church and Canterbury Rooms. For more details and to sponsor them click HERE.

FOODBANK
Please remember that the Foodbank is relying on our generosity to continue providing food to those in our village in need. The cost of living crisis is impacting local families, and bringing new clients to our distribution centre for our help. Our stocks are starting to run low. The Foodbank is in need of tinned meat, tinned vegetables & potatoes, UHT fruit juice 1L (preferably apple or orange juice), UHT milk 1L (whole and semi-skimmed), fruit squash, snacks (savoury & sweet), sponge puddings, tinned spaghetti hoops, nappies size 7 and 8, baby wipes, floor cleaner, men’s razors, hair conditioner, laundry liquids & capsules. Please do not donate out-of-date items. Thank you for your continued support.

ANNUAL PAROCHIAL CHURCH MEETING

The Annual Parochial Church Meeting (APCM) takes place Tuesday 17th May at 7.00 pm in the Canterbury Rooms. The meeting includes the election of Churchwardens and members of the Parochial Church Council. If you are interested in standing for the PCC please contact Sara Dean the PCC Secretary by clicking HERE. Whilst there is some business to discuss, this is also an opportunity to hear from the Rector about plans for the future and to celebrate all that has occurred over the past year. We can do that over a glass of wine!

In accordance with the Church Representation Rules 2020, we are obliged to make the Electoral Roll (our register of regular worshippers) available for viewing. It is available for inspection, please contact the Parish Office.

FACULTY APPLICATION
The PCC is making a relatively simple application to replace the radiator covers in the North Transept (1980s formica) with something more in keeping with the improvements made in recent years. The 31-day notice ends on 1st June. The full application can be seen on the notice board at the church but is equally summarised by the design images that can be seen by clicking HERE.

CHRISTIAN AID WEEK 15th - 22nd MAY 2022
Following the success of recent online appeals for the work of Christian Aid, we will not be delivering door to door envelopes this year, but will instead encourage all to make a donation via our own online Christian Aid giving page. To make a donation please click HERE.

Every blessing.

THE FOURTH SUNDAY OF EASTER

Almighty God,
whose Son Jesus Christ is the resurrection and the life:
raise us, who trust in him,

in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
Amen.
