Parish News PARISH EUCHARIST MUSICAL SETTING We will be singing a difgerent setting for Parish Eucharists during Lent and Advent this year - the Trinity Mass by David Tiorne. Tiere will be a congregational rehearsal at 10.10am before the Parish Eucharist on 23rd February and again on 8th March. We shall continue to use the St Helen’s Mass by Joanna Forbes L’Estrange at Family Communions. RENDEZVOUS LUNCH CLUB Tie next lunch club is on Tuesday 11th February (menu - cottage pie followed by jam and coconut sponge). Due to increased food and labour costs, we have had to raise the lunch price to £8 per person from now on. Please call the parish offjce or email offjce@sonningparish.org.uk to book. LENT SUPPERS Tiis year we shall be focusing on the Lord’s Prayer (praying it, meaning it, living it). Supper will be served in the Ark at 7:30pm, beginning on Tuesday March 3rd and all following Tuesdays in Lent. After supper there will be input from the Ministry Team and some informal discussion at tables. Tiese suppers are open to everyone and nobody is pressurised to contribute to the discussions if they would rather not. Please let Hilary in the offjce know if you would like to come as we shall need numbers for catering. As usual, there is no charge, but donations can be made for the Karun Orphanage, South India. LENT SUPPERS - ARE YOU AVAILABLE TO HELP? Please let Hilary in the offjce know if you are able to help with the Lent suppers. In particular, we are looking for people who are willing to help clear up in the kitchen after the meal. It’s not an onerous job and with a team of people it can be quickly achieved. Any help would be greatly appreciated. - 3 -
