GENERAL
New Home Group Starting - Our Alpha course has been such a success that we have decided to continue the group on as a home group. We have space for 3 or 4 more people to join our group of 8 people. We will be starting a new video series called “God Is Closer Than You Think’ on Thursday nights from the 4th of September. If you would like to join the group please speak to Guy.
Presbyterian Savings & Development Society (PSDS) – A reminder about the special offer of 8.2% interest p.a. for 5 months on new and additional deposits made before 12 September. The PSDS bulletin publicising this offer is available on the greeting desk or see Eve Maxwell, Parish Liaison person. This offer is open until 30 September is also available in the latest issue of SPANZ. Copies are also on the greeting desk.
Foodbank – Requests for food parcels have increased recently and our supplies could do with a “top up”. We have a good stock of tea bags, cereals and tinned fish, but would appreciate donations of pasta (including instant noodles), instant coffee, rice, sugar, soups, tinned tomatoes and sweet corn, spreads, biscuits, soap powder and toilet paper. Thank you for your continuing generosity to those in need.
Mac & Pat Williams are living at Sir Edmund Hillary Village and Mac says he misses us all at St Cuthbert’s (We miss him too!). His phone number is Tel. 570-4332.
WHAT’S ON…
