Year's Mind: Maureen Martin and Thomas King

We are saddened to hear of the death of John Brett, for many years head gardener at Bolney Lodge and great support the Bolney Horticultural Society as a devoted committee member and subsequently Chairman and President.  Please pray for the repose of his soul and his family who mourn their loss.

We continue to pray for the repose of the souls of  Rodney Pratt and Joe Atkinson.

  
Intercessions:  Please continue to pray for those who are sick and in need within our families and community especially -  
Louise Carter, Fred Harrison, John Higinbotham, Michael Hudson,  Judith Kendra, Trevor and Lucy Mitchell, Annabel Moir, David Robins, Jenny Scofield, Steven Stone, Mike Vidler, Hudson Wiggins and all those carers locally who quietly carry out their duties with little support or respite available at this time.

We also continue to pray especially for all nations tackling Coronavirus, for persecuted Christians abroad and for the populations of East Africa & Pakistan whose crops are being devastated by locusts.
