The Charity of the Month. Thank you to everyone who contributed to the collection for Barnardo’s last week, raising £156.70 plus Gift Aid. The last charity of the month in the present grouping will be at the start of November. To help with choosing the next ones, it would be a great help to have suggestions of charities you'd like to support - there's a sheet for this at the back of church.

Thank you.

DAHLIAS A huge thank you to talented Cliff Bilbrough, who has supplied competition standard dahlias for us to enjoy, for six weeks.

Olive wood products - Once again Anne will be selling olive wood articles made by Christian families in Bethlehem. All the money raised goes back to Palestine to the local families in time for Christmas, letting them know that they are not forgotten. A selection will be available in church after the 10.00am service today. Have a look! You can also order more of an item you like before Nov. 2nd and they will be sent from Palestine before Christmas.

DATES FOR THE DIARY Friday 13th October at 7.00pm. The Friends of Marrick Priory hope that you might join them for a fun Curry and Quiz Evening at The Memorial Hall, Reeth.

Sunday 29th October. Hope and Remembrance service at 6.30pm in St Mary’s. This is a quiet service (All Souls) with some hymns, readings, a short address of some words of hope and comfort, and space to remember loved ones who have died, whether recently or in the past. There will be the opportunity to light a candle if you wish in memory of loved ones. There will be tea and coffee available afterwards, and a very warm welcome.

If you would like the name of a loved one to read out during the service, please add their name to the list at the back of church.

After the Cards and Visitors. Bereavement is a very difficult time for the spouse/partner left behind. Starting again on your own is even more difficult.

Carrie and Anne would like to help you with the next step by meeting any recently bereaved spouse/partner for coffee at the Greyfriars Restaurant. Please phone Carrie 850103 to make arrangements to meet.

All notices for the next pew sheet to Claire Murray by Wednesday evening please.
