Salisbury Deanery Synod
Salisbury Deanery Synod has joined with other churches in Salisbury, about 30 in all. We meet as ‘Churches Together’ about 6 times in the year, to pray together, and share news with each other. Various events are organised such as the ‘Big Farm Day Out’, the ‘Good Friday March of Witness’ and last Christmas the churches were encouraging gifts towards the ‘Rough Sleepers Project’ to name only three. However, we also meet as an Anglican Deanery Synod once a year, and last year the Bishop joined us. We are looking for 2 people to become our Deanery Synod Representatives. If this is something you think you could do, please talk to Revd. Becky.
Palm Crosses
Please could you bring any palm crosses you may have, to church next Sunday so we can use them to make the ash for Ash Wednesday. Thank you.
Message from Canon David Slater.
Some of my good friends have agreed to organise and host a party concert for me to celebrate my 90thbirthday with a few, several or many, of my friends and family.
It will be held at St.Faith’s Parish Hall, The Pallant, Havant, Hampshire, PO9 1BE - on March 4th- 7 for 7.30pm. Any contributions for a bring-and-share finger food supper would be welcome – a bar will be available for the purchase of drinks.
This invitation comes to you with a request that if there are others that you know would also like to be invited please would you do it. We would like some idea of numbers so a brief reply to: by 22nd February would be helpful.I would be pleased if everybody I have known over the years could be asked – the hall is big enough.Hope to see you on the 4th. Go well. David Slater.
