Notices for the Fifth Sunday in Lent 2024

EASTER FLOWERS  

Please consider donating to our Easter flowers fund. Donations for flowers to beautify our church for Easter may be made in memory of a faithful departed loved one or in gratitude for birthdays that occurred during the ‘no flowers’ Lenten season. Offerings should be received by Tuesday, March 25, 2024.

JEZREENE SUTTLE

Our beloved Jezreene Suttle retired from her active employment in the church office on November 30, 2023, after working tirelessly for over 30 years. We are making plans to recognise her work during a special Choral Evensong on Sunday April 7, 2024 at 4:30 p.m.

We are also collecting for a retirement gift. Monetary contributions may be placed in an envelope marked ‘Jezreene Suttle’ and either placed in the offering plate or in the office offering box. Alternatively, online contributions can be made to our bank account clearly stating ‘Jezreene Suttle’ or visit our website's Giving page: https://www.christchurchpc.com/give-online"
