NOTICES… NEWS… EVENTS…
Forty Green and Knotty Green: The next get-together will be on Monday 29 January at 8pm (hopefully at the reopened Red Lion – if not there it will be at the Royal Standard). All are welcome.
Christian Book Club meets again on Monday 19 February. The book for discussion will be “Speaking of Jesus, the art of non-Evangelism” by Carl Medearls. The group normally meets on the 2nd Monday of the month at the Vicarage at 7.30pm, but February would clash with half term so we are meeting the following week (19 February) at Zoe’s. Contact Zoe on 671961. Our Lent book will be “The Heart’s Time: A poem a day from Lent to Easter” by Jane Morley. As Lent starts on 14 February this year before our next meeting, Zoe is giving advanced warning for this one.
Amersham Deanery Pilgrimage to the Oberammergau Passion Play is on www.amershamdeanery.org.uk/oberammergau.html. They will shortly be adding the colour brochure from Tailored Travel. These brochures are now in both Churches.
Horse and Jockey Monthly Lunch: The next one will be on Sunday 28 January. It is very helpful if you let the office (813254) know if you are coming so that the pub can have some idea of numbers. All are welcome.
Holy Trinity Cleaning Rota: Pat Seddon (813268) would be enormously grateful to hear from anyone who might be able to join the cleaning team, as one or two have had to drop out.
