PCC Meeting  - The next PCC meeting for St German’s will be on Monday 19 October at 7pm  via Zoom.  We will discuss ongoing ministry, finance as well as the Ministry Area proposals and how they may affect us.                  
Calendar - A calendar is being prepared as a fundraiser for charity and parish funds.  Many thanks to Richard Davey and Ron Cox for providing the images and artwork.     Ministry Areas - The bishop announced at our diocesan conference this year that  ministry areas will replace parishes on 1 January 2022. Current proposals are that St German’s and St Saviour’s would join the Cardiff South MA along with the Grangetown Churches and St Mary’s in Butetown, however nothing has been set in stone as yet. The next few months will involve much discussion as to how we might move forward on this. If you have any thoughts on this please see Fr Phelim. The Ministry Area Handbook setting out all the details can be found on our website.        
Public Worship & COVID -  Please attend carefully to the safety instructions, posters and guidance from stewards and parish officers during the services. Face coverings to be worn, no physical sign of peace and Holy Communion under one kind only.  Please stay in your seats to receive Holy Communion.
