Gosh - where did the summer break go? It seems no time since our School Leaver's service in July - an important occasion in our young people's lives as they move on to the bigger and better things in their education. As always, the school was in good voice and leavers confident as they recounted their memories (I'm not sure I could have done that at their age) and led us in prayer. We all wish them well at their new schools but hope to still see them from time to time.

Jazz at St Andrew's 23rd October

Please don't forget our 'Jazz at St Andrews'event on October 23rd (a Saturday). This is going to be a celebration of songs such as those by Gershwin, Ella Fitzgerald and others. There are full details in the Courier and for further information and on-line ticket sales click here. We intend to have a wine bar for the interval and for socialising afterwards. Because space in St Andrew's is limited to about 120, we don't know if there will be any tickets available on the door, so buy early and join us for an entertaining night out.

 

Ducis and Everleigh Show 11th September

The village show is being held on the recreation ground on 11th September from 12.30pm and promises to be a 'good do' - full details in the Courier. We will be selling 'Jazz@St Andrews' tickets during the show.

 

Harvest Festival 26th September at 11.00am

Our Harvest Festival in St Andrew's will be followed by a ploughman's lunch so please do stay on and enjoy the occasion. Everyone is welcome to contribute produce to have in church while we celebrate harvest - it will all be donated to charities after the service, with non perishables going to the Trussel Trust in Salisbury. Any help you can give to set the Church up during the previous day will be appreciated - either just turn up or contact us by e-mail or phone (850360) to see how you can help. If you can't make the service, there is also a Harvest Service at St Peter's in Everleigh on 9th October, that said, feel free to join us at both of course.

 

Just a reminder......

We have our regular early morning breakfasts on the first Sunday of each month - these are at 8.45am following the earlier service. Come and join us at St Andrew's (you don' have to have been at the service before). Now the loo is working we can all relax about that second cup of coffee.

Ducis Parish Council provide a green wheelie bin for both burial grounds and it is usually located at the hedge between the two. Please do use it for old flowers, plants and the like from graves and monuments - it all helps to keep the two areas looking nice.

Small Children And Mums (also Dads) are always welcome to SCAMPS, this month it is on 22nd September at 10.30am - play for the children, tea and coffee plus chatter for the parents then a song and a prayer.

Tea afternoon for the not so young meets again on 22nd September at 3.30pm (please note the new time) - do come along an join us for a cup of tea and some home made cake.
