We would love
to have as many photos of events and occasions
involving the church community as is possible.
If your organisation or group has photos
of church related events that you would like to have shown
to your neighbours and friends and which would be appropriate
for this site, would you please speak to Kam or email EDITOR@GEDDINGTON.NET
Looking Ahead:
In September there will be:
- Bible Studies at the Vicarage every Tuesday evening;
- Sharing God's Love visiting team in action every week;
- Choir Practice resumes on 8th;
- Drop-in for Mums and small persons resumes on 15th;
- Harvest Festival on 18th, with Sale of Goods in aid of CLIC
Sargent-helping children with cancer;
- And a Confirmation at 4pm on the same day!
Come to Church Sunday on 25th-please take an invitation, and

Meeting on 25th May
" We heard from the Fabric Committee about a range of
repairs and maintenance for which quotes and permissions are
being sought.
" We would like to replace all remaining pews with chairs
- inviting memorial donations as before.
" We had a thoughtful second look at reactions to the
two experiments in seating layout (one affected 8am service,
one affected 9.45am service.) Even though we had given warning,
many people were surprised by the second experiment. We would
like plenty of discussion before trying anything else. It
might be a good idea to experiment with a more semi-circular
arrangement in the Nave, rather than the angular arrangement
at present. Tell us what you think.
" Letters have been sent to many church members, asking
them to join a new house-to-house visiting scheme. Some have
cautiously replied "Tell me more."
" A letter about Back to Church Sunday (25th September)
had been received. We will call it Come to Church Sunday,
tie it in to the house-to-house scheme and provide invitations
to all churchmembers to encourage us to bring friends.
" CLIC Sargent for children with cancer has helped Rees
Buckseall, so we will make that our special cause during the
3rd quarter of the year.
" Bishop offers to come and confirm on 18th September
at 4pm. This is Harvest weekend, so Church will look good.
We agreed to have Evening Prayer with Confirmation and Tea
Party!
" Next meeting 21st July
Weekley PCC
Meeting on 16th June
We noted that:
" We look forward to Boughton Estates completing road
repairs near the Church.
" We need a new "Bell box" for our Roof alarm.
" We have nearly completed phase 1 of our limewashing
project, and should be able to afford to do the nave next.
" The Mayflower concert raised £370 for Church
Funds. We are grateful for this support.
" Next meeting 1st September
