First, may I offer thanks to everyone who supported the Rectory BBQ, which raised £147 for Priscilla Bacon Hospice.

Tomorrow’s services (3rd) are 9.30am Communion at Claxton and 11am Communion at Bramerton. Please note that Church Lane is closed between Claxton Corner and St. Andrew’s, so access will be from Ashby Road. 

Tomorrow is also the second day of ‘Celebrations’, Carleton St. Peter’s Flower Festival. Come along between 10.30am and 4.30pm for creative arrangements, refreshments and stalls in aid of St. Peter’s.

Helen and I are away from Aug 7th-23rd. For any urgent pastoral matters during this time please contact Mandy.

August 15th sees the 80th anniversary of VJ day. There will be a national silence at 12 Noon.

Wishing you a peaceful August,

Nick
