‘Churchwardens’ Chat’

We are now in an interregnum following the retirement of the Vicar and so the monthly letter for the Parish News is written by the Churchwardens

All Heavens declare the glory of the risen Lord …

At the time of writing, we are looking forward to Rogation Sunday (May 25) and our walk to St. Mary’s Church Patshull for a short service.

Many thanks to all who help make this opportunity to visit a beautiful (sadly closed) church possible.

We are delighted that the Rev Merry Smith, our new vicar, is going to open our fete on July 5. We will share more news about her starting date with us when this has been agreed.

As Fete Day approaches, any offers of help on the day are welcomed! Most importantly come along and enjoy the day.

Tickets are now available for the Much Wenlock Male Voice Choir in St Chad’s on July 12 and planning for the Scarecrow Festival on the weekend of September 26-28 is proceeding well, thanks to the many volunteers who have offered their support. Tickets for the Saturday evening Brass Band concert will be available soon.

The Bishop of Wolverhampton, the Rt Rev Tim Wambunya, is leading an evening of prayer open to all to join, at Christ Church, Tettenhall Wood, on Friday June 20 from 7pm to 10pm. There will be different stations to move around the church and join in prayer for our communities.

After every Sunday and Wednesday morning service in St Chad’s we serve tea and coffee, a great time for a chat. And If you or someone you know wishes to receive Home Holy Communion, do please get in touch.

God Bless,

Clive Pendrell and Dorothy Steel,
Churchwardens
