SATURDAY APRIL 26th SPRING CLEAN AND GARDEN GREEN DAY
SPRING is here and as part of the monthly advertised “Green days” in the garden we would like to have a spring clean in our wonderful church and to get more help in the garden for all the amazing work being done by Ruth and Peter Norris plus to help fix some of the niggling little jobs round the church on SATURDAY APRIL 26th 09:00 – 2:00pm.
WHY YOU SHOULD COME
This are one of the very few times in the year we ask the for help outside of the monthly green days. We don’t employ cleaners or gardeners, so we are reliant on YOU as volunteers. So please do come down and make a contribution to keep the church shipshape but also socialise – chatting as well as working! Just drop in and out if you can’t stay all morning.
It is always a great social occasion and fun, coupled with the satisfying feeling of getting something useful done! An ideal way to catch up, or make new friends if you haven’t been coming that long
FOOD AND DRINK
There will be a snack and drink in the morning for the workers provided by the cafe which is now open on a Saturday 10am -2pm and you can grab a wider selection of delicacies/ speciality coffee/other great refreshments and perhaps stay for lunch!
WHAT TO BRING AND WHAT TO DO
Please bring your various tools/cleaning items etc (and take them away with you afterwards!!)
We expect many gardening jobs – Ruth will be supplying more details soon as the foliage is already shooting up, plenty of weeding and tidying to be done
But a big focus will be on cleaning the church as there were only a few of us doing that last year and we have a list of tasks! (see below !)
There will also be some “fix it” jobs for the practically minded which we will decide nearer the time.
I’ll be putting up these tasks on the church noticeboard in the vestibule. Please sign up!
Best wishes
