Year's Mind: Bryan Davies, Fred Thomsett, Nevill Pooley, Phil Lord and Alan Mealing.
Intercessions: Please continue to pray for those who are sick and in need within our families and community especially - Albert and Joan Clifford, Fred Harrison, John Higginbotham, Michael Hudson, Judith Kendra, Rita List, Annabel Moir, 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.
Sue visited Hazel in her new care home earlier this week. She sends her love to everyone and is missing coming to join us on Sundays but seems very happy and settled. Physically she struggles but never complains!
Our prayers especially for Afghanistan - for those who suffered and died in the bomb attack, those who will be unable to leave the country who live in terror and for those who will be forced to find a way out on foot. All will suffer arduous journeys.
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.
