Skills Celebration Day
St Peter’s Church, Parwich
Bank Holiday Monday 3rd May
It dawned on us recently how blest our village is with individuals with the most extraordinary range of talents and interests – from painters, through quilters, potters, bee keepers, metal detector researchers, meteorologists, caterers, flower arrangers, to record producers! – sometimes skills quite hidden from view.
We would like to put on a day in the church celebrating some of our talents and interests – and maybe arrange lessons in these skills in the future.
Do you have an interest/talent/knowledge that you would like to share & celebrate with us? Or maybe someone you know? Maybe another member of your family?
Do please contact us – and help us celebrate the amazing diversity of human interest and enquiry.

Pop along to Town Head (Rosemary & Stuart’s house) at 12.30-2pm for Lent lunch tomorrow. Enjoy a range of cheeses, bread and soup – more fun than making your own lunch. You don’t have to be a member of the Church to enjoy this lunch – it is a community event to raise funds for Church repairs (via a donation for the lunch) – afterall we like seeing the Church in our village, so let’s help keep it in good repair. Everyone is very welcome, including children.
Next Lent Lunch will be on Wednesday 24th March at the Vicarage.

New Year’s Day Get Together
Posted in Church, Music on Thursday December 31, 2009| 1 Comment »
Why not pop along to Church sometime tomorrow between 11am and early pm, for a few minutes or a couple of hours. A chance to catch up on the New Year’s news and gossip with some delightful music playing in the background. If you have any food or drink that you want to use up, (the diet regime starts tomorrow – so it’s a good chance to remove all that wicked temptation) bring it along and share with others. If your cupboards are bare, then pop along for a bite in exchange for a donation to help the Church.
A warm welcome to Andy, our new Vicar.

There is a wonderful display of Christmas trees in the Church, decorated by the different societies, groups and individuals in the village. An enormous amount of effort has gone into this and if you haven’t already been in to have a look, please do.
Remember it is the Crib Service on Thursday at 4pm, everyone is extremely welcome.

Parwich Says “Thank You” To Simon and Barbara
Posted in 2009, Church, People, Posts of Note on Sunday December 13, 2009| 2 Comments »
Simon our postman will be doing his round for the last time on 2nd January after 11 years delivering the post to the people of Parwich. We could not have wished for a more dedicated and helpful person to deliver our mail. Through rain, snow and shine, Simon has always looked after us with a smile and a wave. We will be very sorry to see him go.
It was wonderful therefore to have the opportunity this afternoon to thank him and his wife Barbara.
Christmas Tree Festival starts today
