St Mary’s News Update 23rd NovemberWithin the coming year we will be working with a larger group of parishes than we are currently. These will be known as MMUs. We have the opportunity to apply for funding for someone to help with our mission – for example this might be a youth or families worker. We would really like to hear your thoughts on what would be most appropriate for our need. Please write your suggestions on the list in church by 13 December.
Taking place on Sat 28 Nov, West Bergholt Methodist Church – 10am-12 midday. Stalls, coffee and mince pies.
