Christian Aid Week

Christian Aid Week is over for 2022, but there is still time to donate towards St Mary’s target. Last year we raised £1,340 so this year we have set a goal of £1,500. Please give generously to this worthy cause.

Giving envelopes are available at the back of the church which you can return next week. You can also donate online through St Mary’s own Christian Aid e-Envelope at wkrk.uk/ca.

Annual Parish Meetings

Today at 11.30 am
St Mary’s Church Whitkirk Community Centre

Our annual parish meetings will be held at 11.30 am, after this morning’s service. These are an opportunity for those in the parish to have their say in how their Church is run, and include a summary of the year, reports from key people and a chance to ask questions, as well as the election of roles such as deanery synod representatives and members of the PCC.

Cake Sale

Next Sunday 29 May at 11.00 am
St Mary’s Church Whitkirk Community Centre

Help us raise funds for prizes for our Summer Fair raffle, by picking up some mouthwatering cakes to enjoy.

Platinum Jubilee Tea Party

Sunday 5 June at 12.30 pm

Come join us and celebrate the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee with a proper tea party in our Community Centre!

There’s food and fun for all the family, with the street party essentials of sandwiches, cakes, cream scones, jelly, ice cream and strawberries. We’ve got hot and cold drinks, and the bar’s open if you fancy something more celebratory.

Faithbook: “Who is this man?”

Thursday 9 June at 7.30 pm
The Brown Cow

On Thursday nights in June we’ll be meeting and having a chat about what it means to be a Christian.

Each week begins with a short talk and then time for questions and discussion. We begin Faithbook this year with the question “who is this man?”

Join us after the service for refreshments

You are warmly invited to join us after this morning’s service for refreshments in our Community Centre.
