St Saviour's News - 17 May 2020

Christian Aid Week - This week many christians are fundraising and celebrating CA week in a very different way than usual.  Already we’ve raised over £310 from St Saviour’s which we will send off soon.  If anyone would like to add something extra to this please let us know or contact John Stuart.  As always, we are very grateful for your continued generosity.     
Ministry to Children - We are currently preparing some resources to help support our younger members spiritually during the lockdown.  If you’d like some help with this for your children, grandchildren or neighbours please let Fr Phelim know.            
 Zoom Coffee - This coming Tuesday at 10:30am.   If you’d like to participate please let Fr Phelim know.  It is very easy to join: all you need is a computer or phone with camera and the link we send by email explains the next steps.   If you need help on the day and time please call Fr Phelim on the landline.  Once members are able to connect we will publish dates of other meetings.                                   Lift Up Your Hearts -  Spiritual Support during the pandemic. This week’s reflections are from the dean of Westminster Abbey, David Hoyle. Copies available online.            
Easter Course - Continues this coming Wednesday when we ask ‘why on earth do bad things happen to good people?’.  We will host a zoom meeting on this issue on Wednesday at 7pm.  Ask Fr Phelim for details and an invitation.
