VE Day 75 – 8th May

We were planning to have tea & cakes at the hall to celebrate the 75th anniversary of VE day (8th May) but obviously that’s not now possible.

The formal celebrations have been delayed until later in the year but we’d like to join in the mini celebrations on the 8th – raise a glass (or cuppa) at 3 pm in honour.

You may like to decorate your house in red, white and blue – and if feasible while maintaining social distance why not do so outside your house to join with your neighbours?

St John’s Service 26th April 2020

Dear all

I’ve uploaded the service for St John’s Bellingdon for Sunday 26th April onto Youtube. This week we’re again looking at Jesus’ appearance to the disciples – his time on the road to Emmaus and Margaret Gingell is speaking on this.

This link should take you there https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTyYqX7loB0

As before those with internet linked televisions you should be able to watch it there and (at present) find it by searching but only after 09.45 tomorrow when it goes public (and live) but the link should work or you can look for the Great Chesham YouTube channel!

The plan is as before – to follow the service at 10.00 on Sunday – but of course you can be flexible!

Also below are the St Mary’s Notice sheet and the Parish Notice sheet for this week.

With prayers and best wishes to you all

Tim
