This year’s Parish Summer Fête will take place on Saturday 28th June from 2pm till 4pm, at St. Nicholas Church and the area of Elmdon Park near the beacon. The theme this year is “Teddy Bears’ Picnic”.

St. Stephen’s Summer Fête

St. Stephen’s Summer Fête will be on Saturday 14th June from 2-4pm and will feature the regular stalls - gifts, plants, cakes, and a variety of games - do come and join us!

Music Group

The follow-up to “Songs and Sandwiches” will be on Sunday June 15th starting at 4.15pm (or 4pm if you would like to buy tea and cake!). We aim to finish between 5.15 and 5.30. Please let Ruth Chamberlain know as soon as possible if you will be bringing a musical instrument to play - so music can be arranged if necessary.

All welcome - even if you would only like to learn some new songs which will be used during the services sometimes. Don’t worry if you can’t come every time. We are hoping to meet once a month on the third Sunday of the month. Please could you bring your own music stand if required.

Flowers in Church

Each week we enjoy flowers in St. Nicholas Church. We are most grateful to those who provide them and to those who keep and eye on them to keep them fresh. They are usually provided by people in memory of loved ones or to mark anniversaries. If you would like to place flowers in church on a particular Sunday or arrange for someone to place them there for you please contact us. Alternatively you can make a donation to the flower fund so that flowers can be bought for Sundays when there is no sponsorship.
