Please leave any donations in the kitchen during the week of the Outreach. Many thanks.

Four Studies and a Party update - The Pastoral Team have been studying the feedback from the course David and Debbie ran in the autumn.

More details to follow. Other outcomes will unfold in the months to come.

Children's Nativity Play - this year will be in two parts, the main event taking place on Sunday 8 Jan during the 9.45 Eucharist. ALL are welcome to take part. In order to prepare, we will have a rehearsal during our Epiphany Party at 2pm on Tuesday 3 Jan in the Church.

Advent Fayre Jewellery Stall A huge thank you to everyone at All Saints who donated items for sale. Thanks to your generosity and with the help of some Gold Scraps sold for cash, we have so far managed to raise just over £600. With luck, this figure may rise a little more over the next week or two. Thank you also to those who helped us on the day. Liz and Chris.

The Door newspaper is a valuable resource to churches in the Oxford Diocese and this is a plea from David for a new distributor to deliver bundles of the newspaper around the Wycombe Deanery churches once a month. The newspapers are delivered to a place of your choice and then are required to be distributed to 18 churches in the Wycombe Deanery. Perhaps there are a small group of people who would be prepared to share the distribution and take this on. John and Veronica Beaumont would be happy to tell you what is involved and can be contacted on 01494 523697, alternatively contact David on 01494 525602, or Helen in the Parish Office if you can help.

A huge thank you from Gill Blair for the £255 worth of sponsorship which I received this morning in church for my Walk The Chalk - The Chilterns 3 Peaks Challenge. I will be walking the 9 miles & climbing the 3 peaks of Whiteleaf Cross, Coombe Hill & Ivinghoe Beacon on Sept 18th in aid of Iain Rennie Hospice at Home who helped me care for my husband Bill in the last few weeks of his life. I am hoping to raise a minimum £1,000 for such a worthy local cause.

If you enjoy fund raising through concerts, seaside trips or to Cathedrals and Theatres please talk to us and consider joining with us.
