From Fr. Bernard
The first, and most important, notice this week, of course, is about our Winter Fair TODAY! If you are bringing a cake to sell, please bring it by 10 am. The doors open at 11 am, and the raffle will be called when the Fair closes at 3 pm. Please come along and help, or at the very least, spend lots of money!! Tomorrow is Remembrance Sunday and there will be the usual Act of Remembrance during our Sunday morning Eucharists at 8 and 10 am. A copy of that service is on this website as well as this week's Cross and Crown. There will also be an Act of Remembrance at the war memorial on Mentmore Road when members of the Legion and Civic dignitaries arrive from Leighton Buzzard, usually at around 12:30 pm. Evensong tomorrow is at 6 pm as usual. This week, the Servers’ Office will be on Tuesday (moved from last week because of All Souls’) and the PCC meets on Thursday. One of the things we will be discussing is how well our current streaming platform is working (through our Facebook page). If you have any thoughts on that before Thursday, do let me know. The Bible Book Club meets in the Saunders’ Room on Friday, when we will be discussing Psalms 100 – 150. After that, there will be a Eucharist in the Lady Chapel at 8:30 pm. There will also be Eucharists on Wednesday and Thursday this week as usual. Next Saturday, the 15th of November, is the day of 'A Musical Celebration', a concert in St Barnabas at 7:30 pm, when Citizens Advice Leighton-Linslade (CALL) will be celebrating its 50th anniversary and raising much-needed funds with a spectacular concert led by the 40-piece Leighton-Linslade Gala Orchestra (Musical Director Dennis Pim) supported by upper voices vocal ensemble 'Chanteuses' (Musical Director Susan Cox). This 'feel good' evening will feature a wide selection of music from a medley of ABBA songs, selections from Frozen and Carousel, the themes from Pink Panther and Star Wars and lots more. Tickets (subject to a 10% booking fee) are £12 (aged over 16), £6 (aged 5–16), free for under 5s (on an accompanying adult's lap) - available via the Gala Orchestra's website https://www.llgo.uk. Lastly, the list of those in the yearsmind to be remembered week by week needs revising for 2026. The list that was used this year is on the table at the back of Church. Please amend it where necessary, by ticking those entries that are to be retained in next year’s list. It helps if you also write your name, in case of queries. Names of those who died this year can be added on the reverse sides of the sheets. Please remember to write neatly, and print names if you can, otherwise I may not be able to read them properly. Also please remember to put the person’s date of death, otherwise I won't know where to add them in! Thank you. God bless and see you soon Fr Bernard The Rev'd Dr B Minton Team Vicar of Linslade Ouzel Valley Team |
