Pastoral Care Team
A second group meeting took place on Wednesday, 26th March, when Heather Mutch’s group gathered in the Bow Window Room. Heather invited the Rev. Vernon Stone to open the meeting with prayer and there then followed a very worthwhile discussion amongst the visitors as to how they were coping. It would seem that visiting is being carried out diligently and there would not appear to be any problems in this group. Thanks to the willingness of some visitors to take on extra visiting, the group is, at the moment, more or less covered, which is very encouraging. Heather thanked the group for their commitment and the meeting closed with the saying of the Grace together.
A further two group meetings are scheduled to take place at the end of April so the transition from meetings of the whole Team to smaller, individual group meetings would appear, at this stage, to be going according to plan.

- Sunday Evening Service. On the last Sunday of the month. These services will resume on Sunday 27th January at 7pm, in the Murray Chapel. It will last approximately 40 minutes and be informal, meditative and reflective in style using images, symbols and modern media.
- Friday Lunchtime Service. Restarting on Friday 11th January at 1pm there will be a weekly daytime service in the Murray Chapel for those wishing to take a short reflective time out of busy life. The service will last 15-20 mins and comprise a short reading, prayer and reflective thoughts. All from any or no church will be welcome to join us.
- Pastoral Care Team. Are you a people person? If so, you could well be just who we’re looking for to be a visitor on our Pastoral Care Team, whose purpose is to help with visiting the sick and housebound and those in long-term residential care as well as keeping in touch with those members of the congregation, who have difficulty in getting to worship. With over 50 visitors now on our Team and 4 out of 6 Geographical Areas covered by visitors, we still would be delighted to welcome anyone, who thinks they might be interested in joining us to share in carrying out this worthwhile and rewarding aspect of church life. Regardless of whether you wish to visit one person or many, your contribution would be very much appreciated and, if you are interested, please contact Sandra Aitchison. (Telephone 01505 613466)
