IT IS so nice that we can be open every Saturday to welcome our friends for refreshments and to look at our huge range of books. We are sorry our Church has not looked its usual best for some time and we can’t wait to get it back to normal! This week we have been able to remove the covering on the centre aisles and we feel we are at last making progress. In addition to our book sales there is much vacuuming and dusting , I can guarantee that 150 years old dust is just as dirty as modern dust, if not dirtier!

So looking ahead we have our All Souls Service on Sunday, November 1 at 4pm. A very special service when you have the opportunity to remember loved ones, light a candle and take comfort from a very special service. Afterwards we will have coffee and home-made cakes .

Then on Sunday November 8 at the earlier time of 10.45 you can join us for the Remembrance Sunday Service and ,once again, we are very pleased to be joined by Malvern St James School, their Chaplain Revd. Kim Taplin and their choir

On Saturday November 21 our ever popular Christmas Fair has an added attraction this year of the very talented Tim Sidford who will be playing for us . So do come and have a lovely morning, enjoy refreshments, all home-made and our various stalls and then just simply sit and listen.
