Congratulations to Margaret and Martin Burgess for their 48th wedding anniversary this coming Wednesday (2nd) and to Linda and Brian Barker for their golden wedding anniversary next Saturday (5th).

Collect:  Almighty and everlasting God, you are always more ready to hear than we to pray and to give more than either we desire or deserve: pour down upon us the abundance of your mercy, forgiving us those things of which our conscience is afraid and giving us those good things which we are not worthy to ask but through the merits and mediation of Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.  Amen.

Years Mind:  Nellie Smith, Susan Pontin, Joan Pooley
