St German's News - 6 June 2021 'Corpus Christi'

Covid Risks Update - Please continue to adhere to social distancing and so go straight to their chair and at the end of the service leave orderly.  Once outside in the carpark, catch ups and some fellowship is possible.                       
New Ministry - Fr Phelim and family will be re-locating to the midlands later in the Summer (where Annette already works) and where he is to begin a new role as a full time area dean in the diocese of Birmingham.  His last Sunday with us is 25 July.   
Weekday and Sunday Services - This week’s schedule is: Tuesday morning mass in St Saviour’s and a Monday evening mass with Fr Keith in St German’s.    Next Sunday Fr Phelim is back and services return to normal.                      
Christian Aid - We normally have activities organised to promote the work of CA as well as raise some funds for them.  If you’d like to donate please see Angela.          
PCC - Our next PCC meeting will be on Monday 21 June after the 6pm mass in church.  Our focus will be on ministry area preparation and especially the decrees and structures of the new MA.  Angela will update us today on MA progress.      
Singing - Currently we are not permitted to sing congregationally yet we are permitted to have up to six voices singing.  We’d like to restart singing and move away from recorded hymns over the next few weeks and so if anyone was willing to be part of the ‘six’ each week we’d appreciate it if you could let us know.  It doesn’t have to be the same six each Sunday.  Hopefully this restriction will be eased later in June.  Starts from today.                                
 Gardening Club - meets on the first Saturday of each month at 11am.  Open to all.  Next meets on Saturday 3 July.                              
​Recently Departed - Gareth Whiting, Ruth Pesticcio, Doris Thomas, Philip Brown.
