Christmas Concert at Kirklevington:
A huge thank you to all who supported the Christmas concert at Kirklevington. It was a very successful evening with 85+ attending. The ‘acts’ were all marvellous and much appreciated by everyone! Over £900 was raised for Church funds. Thank you. The Christmas Hamper was won by the Humphreys family and the wine hamper by David Haworth.
Pasada journey:
For the last few years, the families/ congregation at Kirklevington, have joined in the PASADA. This involves offering ‘Mary and Joseph’ a roof over their heads en route for Bethlehem! If you would like to offer a night’s hospitality, please get in touch with Rev Kate: revkatebrown@outlook.com for more information.
Bell Ropes project at Kirklevington.
Our 3 new ropes have been hung and a few cobwebs were removed from the scissor lift! Once again thank you to those who donated funding to make this possible. Thanks also to Colin, John, Phil and David who were a very effective team!
Parish Safeguarding Officer:
After many year’s service Elsi Hampton has resigned as our PSO and I would like to thank Elsi for all her hard work and commitment to the role during that time. It does mean in the interim that PSO responsibilities default to Fr Darren as incumbent. If anyone does have any safeguarding concerns please do contact him in the first instance or Helen Wilson our churchwarden. If you think the role of PSO is something you would like to consider please do have a word with Fr Darren who will be happy to provide more information about this important church position.
Foodbank:
We have been approached by the Foodbank requesting contributions towards food/gifts for Christmas for the many families who are being supported at the moment. If you can provide goods, please place them in the blue box at the back of church asap. Many thanks.
