It’s Jane’s Birthday  on Friday the 13th, so we advise her not to walk under any ladders that day, as well as bringing her our congratulations and good wishes, from all her friends here at Woodseats.

Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent, falls on Wednesday 18th February this year. We are hoping to hold a series of Lenten Studies in March, which will be shared by our friends from Mount View. 

What is the connection between Glyn Jones  and the Sunday roast? Glyn  will be appearing as a Beefeater in a production of Gilbert and Sullivan’s opera The Yeomen of the Guard at Meersbrook Park Church, at 7.30 pm, Wednesday 25th to Friday 27th February. Why not go along and support him and the Meersbrook Park Opera Society in their 100th year? (See poster in Clarion)

A gentle reminder that if you stay for coffee after the service on a Sunday, please could you leave via the church door on Mitchell Road and not the brown door near the Large Hall. Although the church door may be locked, you can get out by pushing the crash bar and slamming the door behind you.

We are still accepting donations to the  Grace Food Bank - www.gracefoodbanksheffield.org.uk - via the ramp door on Mitchell Road on Wednesdays from 10.00 am – 11.30am.

Please continue to support this essential service If you are able to help, please let Pat or Tony know.

The Foodbank has requested that as well as the donation of toiletries, they are trying to collect more items that don't need cooking. So, gifts like tinned fruit, ham, corned beef, tuna etc. are especially welcome.
