FRIENDS OF ALL SAINTS, STAPLEHURSTI am delighted to report that the Shepherds' Market raised just over £1,000 for the Friends of All Saints and would like to thank everybody who came to the Church on Saturday December 3rd and did at least some of their Christmas shopping with us. We would also like to thank all the Village Traders who donated prizes for the raffle and supported us by providing goods and services and, of course, all the extra people who helped us on the day. The Friends of All Saints is a secular charity which exists to raise funds for the upkeep and maintenance of the fabric of the Church building. Membership is a minimum of £5 per annum and we would be very pleased if, in these austere times, you could spare us that amount each year. Without members it would be even harder to raise the amounts required. Our Membership Secretary is Andrew Brady and he would love to hear from you on (01580) 891840 or email Andrew Brady Maureen Brice P.C.C. Notes from April 2012 Parish MagazineThe March meeting of the PCC was held on the 7th. On 19th May, a day trip to Cambridge has been organised, details are on the chest at the back of the church. A Bank Holiday Brunch on Monday, May 7th, is to be held at the home of Brian and Alaine Summers, again details on the chest at the back of the church. Mr. Graeme Smith has agreed to be the new independent accountant for the church accounts. The Friends of All Saints have their AGM on 30th May. Five names have so far been submitted to join the committee. Is there anyone who would like to design a cover for both the Christmas and Easter Cards for 2012 - 2013? If so, please get in touch with Rev. Lusa Nsenga-Ngoy. Henry Olonga, a well-known cricketer will speak at a meeting on April 20th. This will be part of the Team Spirit Staplehurst celebrations this year. Rev. John Walker, the Assistant Associate Priest, will be leaving All Saints soon. His last Sunday with us all will be on April 29th. We wish John and his wife, Joss, much luck and with love and thanks for all that John has done for us in All Saints over the last few years. The next meeting will be the APCM on Monday, April 30th in the Parish Room at 8.00pm. Sylvia Lade Back to Top
