This week’s services and next Sunday - Reserve your seat at St Saviour’s mass via Liz on 07718918846.                                     

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 catch ups and some fellowship is possible because it is much safer in terms of infection rates and chances of the coronavirus spreading. We are hopeful for some further freedoms to do with worship and singing in the coming weeks.             

Parish Finances - Envelopes are available from John Stuart for those who want them or he also has details of standing orders and the diocesan gift direct scheme.      

South Cardiff MA - The 1st meeting of our Ministry Area Transition Team met on Wednesday and discussed ministry, mass times, auditing how much outreach actually goes on in and around our churches, as well as some ideas as to how we might resource our ministry to children and young people.  The next meeting will be in person and after Fr Edward is licensed to Grangetown.                  

Next Sunday - Fr Phelim is in Grangetown and we welcome Fr Edward Dowland Owen who will be licensed to Grangetown on 16 May at 3pm.                  

PCC and AGM - Last year we postponed our AGM due to covid restrictions.  Currently the only AGMs allowed are on zoom and so we will wait until restrictions change and we can once more have our AGM in person.  We are due to have an extra AGM this year anyway as we come closer to ratifying the decree that forms our new ministry area.  Next PCC meeting will be on Tues 4 May via zoom at 7pm.        

Faith QI - meets this Wed 21 April via zoom.  Each time we explore a different topic related to our faith and spirituality.   The next topic will be ‘God and the Pandemic’.

Next Sunday - Fr Phelim is in Grangetown and we welcome back Fr Keith Kimber who will preach and preside for us.                              
PCC and AGM - Unfortunately current regulations only permit AGMs on zoom and we would prefer an AGM in person and so we will petition to have our AGM postponed until later in the year.  Today’s short PCC meeting at the end of mass to approve our audited accounts and discuss AOB can continue as planned.  There is likely to be another, extraordinary, meeting of the parish AGM later in the year as our reps bring forward the ministry area proposals and the decree that will help us transition from a parish into the new ministry area.                      
A Quiz Night open to all and led by Richard Davey, will take place later in May when it will be possible for people to meet in person in our hall.  Donations of prizes will be welcome & all proceeds will support our Lenten charity. Expressions of interest/support to Richard or Fr Phelim.  Date to be announced once we hear official guidance from government and/or Church in Wales.

PCC and AGM - We need to have a brief AGM before the end of April and we are proposing at the end of mass on Sunday 25th.  We also need a short PCC meeting at the end of mass next week to approve our audited accounts.  Fr Phelim will be in Grangetown that day but will be back in time for our meeting.  There will be another, extraordinary, meeting of the parish AGM later in the year as our reps bring forward the ministry area proposals and the decree that will help us transition from a parish into the new ministry area.
