Thought for the Week 

Take from me, O Lord, all desire for worldly praise and all uncontrolled anger and remorse.  Give to me a humble and lowly heart, and a mind tender with kindness and compassion.  Grant to me also, good Lord, fullness of faith, firmness of hope and fervency of love, that my one desire may be conformity to your gracious will; through Christ our Lord.  Amen 

Thomas Moore, 1478-1535

Emmaus Crew Needs You! 

The Emmaus Crew are working in partnership with Telford and Wrekin Council on a special project to help vulnerable families in the local area.  We will be asking for donations of good quality towels, tablecloths, quilt covers, sheets, pillow cases and curtains. 

We will provide more details of the project and how it will operate in the next few weeks but we already have our first request: 

Up to 10 sets of good quality second hand quilt covers, bedroom curtains and sheets mainly for single beds.  This is to contribute to some ongoing work with a family to return their children home from relatives and the care system – the children are a wide age range of boys and girls from 2 up to 16 years of age. 

This is our chance to make a real difference to families in need in our area - we hope you are able to help us 

Please speak to the Emmaus Crew or Barbara/Tracey for further information

Harvest Festival Decorating 

Thank you everyone who was involved in any way with either providing flowers fruit, veg etc. or doing such a wonderful job - making up the flower baskets - helping arrange the items  on the tables and front  window  in the  Church and  cleaning up  afterwards. It is very much appreciated to have such willing hard workers.

The result I think you will agree was worth it.
