Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up and yielded a crop, a hundred times more than was sown. (Luke 8:8)
This Sunday is our Harvest service. At 10:30, we’ll be collecting donations for Broxbourne Foodbank, and we’re also being joined by Northaw School’s Choir.
You would be very welcome at our 10:30am service in St Andrew, Cuffley or at 8:30am for a service of Holy Communion in St Thomas, Northaw, this Sunday, as we celebrate God’s provision for us.
The 10:30am Sunday morning service will also be streamed. This will start at 10:25am, and can be accessed directly via YouTube or Facebook, found on our website, and is advertised on our Facebook page and YouTube channel.
If you encounter problems with viewing the service via Facebook (or YouTube) please follow the link for YouTube (or Facebook) instead.
Children’s Church
There is no children’s church this Sunday, as we all meet together in the main body of the building.
8th October 8:30 Service
To help with the practicalities of the Confirmation service on the 8th October, and to allow as many as possible to support our candidates, there won’t be an 8:30 service at St Thomas on the 8th October.
Harvest Plants
As in previous years, we’d like to be able to give plants out to the recently bereaved and housebound. Any donations of pot plants, and volunteers to help deliver, would be greatly appreciated.
Harvest Foodbank
Next Sunday is our Harvest service. As usual, we will be collecting donations for Broxbourne Foodbank. Details of the items they currently need are available on their website.
Work in Northaw churchyard
You may have seen the notice on the cedar tree on the north side of the churchyard indicating its removal during October. The tree has unfortunately become rotten at the base and needs to be removed before it falls down.
Confirmation
We have a service of confirmation on Sunday 8th October at 10:30 in St Andrew. It would be great to have as many as possible to support our candidates as they declare their faith.
Home Communion
If you’re not able to join us on Sundays, and would appreciate a visit with Holy Communion, please be in touch with Chris.
Rotas
We’re currently using self-signup for the various rotas: blank rotas will be pinned up at the back of St Andrew. If you are one of our regular welcomers, readers, pray-ers, communion assistants, or refreshment helpers, please do sign up where you are able to.
If don’t already help, and this would be something you would like to do, please talk to Chris.
