Fairtrade stall: After the 10am service on Sunday February 1st there will be a Fairtrade stall at the back of church with a selection of foods and craft goods. Any purchases will help food and craft producers in a range of countries, as well as supporting an ethical and partnership approach to international commerce. We plan that Hilary and her stall will be with us regularly on the first Sunday of alternate months (i.e. February, April, June, etc). Thanks for your support, Jane and Hilary.
Meeting with Anna Dixon MP: Aire and Worth Deanery are hosting Anna Dixon at their next synod meeting on Zoom and have invited us to attend as we also fall within Anna’s Shipley Constituency. She’ll be speaking about her role day to day and some of the challenges and joys she faces. There will be the opportunity to ask prepared questions, so if anyone has a question for Anna please could they get it to Phil or to sandrabenham@btinternet.com no later than Sunday 1st February. This meeting is open to any member or the congregation, not just Deanery Synod Reps.

Thanks to everyone who contributed in any way to the Christian Aid Christmas Appeal. There were 20 cards on the boards from people within and without the Parish. We welcomed donations online, and there were a number. People also gave cash which totalled £160 and this has been sent to Christian Aid. The Appeal was called ‘No Crib for a Bed’ and went to support mothers fleeing violence in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Thank you again, Janet Squire and the CA committee.
Burley-Téréli Friendship Trust calendars: I have calendars for 2026, still only £6, with photos from both villages and the latest project updates. Also sets of 5 different notelets for £3.50. Janet Squire 07967 565809
