A Night at the Races

October 12, 2014

There are just a few tickets left for the Race Night next Saturday. Thank you to all the local businesses who have sponsored the races or provided a raffle prize and those who have donated bottles of wine or ticket money.  We are aiming to raise £700 for the ‘Blooming’ Shotley Bridge fund. It should be an entertaining evening.

Lights Out

August 2, 2014

Nationally, the British public are being urged to turn their lights off on Monday evening, to mark the centenary of the outbreak of World War One.

More information is available on the BBC website.

Locally, St Cuthbert’s Church are holding a ‘Vigil of Prayer’ at 6pm that evening. There is an open invitation to join them for silent prayer, to visit the War Memorials in church, to remember people from our community who died in time of war – or just to sit, wish, hope…

MONDAY 4TH AUGUST 2014
6p.m. – 7p.m. VIGIL OF PRAYER
(This is an opportunity also to pay a quiet visit to the War Memorials inside the Church)
Concluding at 7p.m… A SHORT SERVICE OF PRAYERS FOR PEACE
