Could you \u2026 would you \u2026 join our group of volunteers who arrange these flowers? We don&#8217;t need &#8216;experts&#8217; just people who love flowers, are willing to learn from our more experienced volunteers and &#8216;have a go&#8217;!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You only need to spare time a few times a year because the more people we have, the less frequent the commitment to help. Full support is given; contact Dorothy, Clive or Margaret Harris for more details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are happy to arrange for those unable to get to church to receive Home Communion, do get in touch with Dorothy, Clive or Ken and we shall arrange this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What terrible weeks of violence we have seen around the world. We continue to support Ukraine with our prayers: join us for 15 minutes of Prayers for Peace, every Tuesday 6pm in church, to pray for the people of Ukraine and for peace in all zones of war and conflict.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, we share the following date for your diary: Saturday, October 12, in the Village Hall, a free event for the whole community where you can learn more about dementia, have a cup of tea, meet people and find information about where support can be gained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Further details will appear in ChadNet and in future magazines but please contact Tracey Williams who is our parish safeguarding officer and our dementia-friendly church co-ordinator if you need any further information or help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We wish you all a safe summer when hopefully we shall enjoy some &#8216;kinder&#8217; summer weather!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">God Bless,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Clive Pendrell and Dorothy Steel,<br>Churchwardens<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Previous month&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;Next month&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;Monthly index &#8216;Churchwardens&#8217; Chat&#8217; 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 August 2024 As the deer pants for the water, so my soul longs after you \u2026Martin Nystrom, published 1984, quoted for a friend &hellip; <\/p>\n<p class=\"link-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pattinghamchurch.org.uk\/web\/information\/vicars-page\/vicars-page-august-2024\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;Vicar&#8217;s page &#8211; August 2024&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":22,"menu_order":245,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-11913","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pattinghamchurch.org.uk\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/11913","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pattinghamchurch.org.uk\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pattinghamchurch.org.uk\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pattinghamchurch.org.uk\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pattinghamchurch.org.uk\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11913"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.pattinghamchurch.org.uk\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/11913\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11997,"href":"https:\/\/www.pattinghamchurch.org.uk\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/11913\/revisions\/11997"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pattinghamchurch.org.uk\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/22"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pattinghamchurch.org.uk\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11913"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
