Parish News: The 140th Dedication Festival

This Sunday we celebrate the 140th Anniversary of the Dedication of our Church of Saint Benet and All Saints. The ceremony was conducted on the 31st of October 1885. On that day this building set aside as a place which would point to heaven, where we can come close to God and God will come close to us.

St Benet’s is self supporting: we receive no regular central church or government funding, so you can donate using card online to support St Benet’s: and every penny really does count! You can also donate by cash or card in person, by texting BENET followed by your donation amount to 70450 to give that amount. Or why not set up a regular standing order with your bank?

The readings for this Sunday are not available online. 

Please pray for:
The sick and those in need
Brenda, Reece, John, Chinye, Cheryl, Ann, Mana, Chika, Alessandro, Sonny, Jan, Danielle and Grace.
The Faithful departed
All who have worshipped and served here, those who have died recently and those whose year’s mind falls about this time, amongst them Paul Johnson, Priest; Fred Tucker (26th), Lalitha Gunawardena; Blanche Darby (27th).
