Harvest Pop-In

Vision4Life - Exploring Prayer

On Saturday 2nd October, we are hosting a day on the theme of Exploring Prayer and have invited all the churches in the South Western area of the synod.  There will be a number of sessions about various aspects of prayer and the day will be led by Revd Paul Stokes of Plymstock United Church, who is also a representative of GEAR.  The cost will be £5 per person, to include tea and coffee and a light buffet lunch.  If anyone would like to attend please speak to the Minister, Secretary, Chris and Isobel Evans, David Maling or Roy King-Underwood, who will be able to give further information and booking forms 

Churches Together in Broadstone – Praying Together

Please pray for all students who did not get into the University of their choice and particularly for those who were not successful in their applications and are having to explore alternative choices.

Autumn Festival - Lytchett Minster URC

On Saturday, 11th September, Lytchett Minster URC are holding their Autumn Festival (combined with the Dorset Churches Cycle Ride).  There will be Produce and Bric-a-brac stalls, as well as refreshments from 0800 - 16.00; ranging from early bacon butties to late cream teas via drinks and cheese rolls.  They are looking for help with all aspects of the day, and also donations of produce and bric-a-brac.  If anyone is able to help in any way, whether for just an hour or more, please contact Pat Johnson as soon as possible.

Last year our Minister, Caroline, took part in The Great Sponsored Cycle Ride with proceeds shared between Lytchett Minster URC and the Dorset Historic Churches Trust.  Unfortunately Caroline cannot cycle this year, so if you would like to take part in cycling or walking to visit some well-known and other less-visited churches, please see Caroline today for a sponsor form and list of participating churches, or call in to LM URC next Saturday.  The starting point, route and number of churches visited (whether 1 or 50+!) is entirely a matter of personal choice.

Flower Festival, Wimborne Minster

There is to be a Flower Festival including a floral carpet and other arrangements at Wimborne Minster on the theme of 'The Gift of Music'. from 10th -13th September.  The times are:  Friday and Saturday, 9.30am-7pm; Sunday, 1pm-6pm; Monday, 9.30am-5.30pm.  Adult admission: £2.50.
