WORSHIP TASK GROUP;
As you will remember when the new worship pattern was introduced in July 2009, it was decided that it would be reviewed after one year. It was also stated that after 6 months the Worship Task group would make an interim review and this is now happening. They are merely taking soundings around the Parish, sampling opinion, & talking to people and groups on an informal basis in preparation for the Review proper in the Summer when everyone will be given an opportunity to express their opinion.

FLOWERS AT ST MARY’S CHURCH
If anyone would like to contribute towards flowers at St Mary’s Church there is a list at the back of the church to sign or have a word with Pat Shaw or any of the flower arrangers.

PRAYER FOR HEALING SERVICES; Revd John Park will be leading services of Prayer for Healing at St Margaret’s, Pegswood at 6pm  25th July. You are very welcome to join the people of Pegswood & Bothal at this service.
ST MARY’S - OPEN DAYS 
After the successful daily opening of St James it would be good to have St Mary’s open on Saturdays during the summer as well. We would hope to have Stewards on duty for much of the time and perhaps this could be combined with those who have tasks to do around the church. If you think you could help please sign the list at the back and/or speak to Mary Orde, 518123 or the Parish Office.
