NOTICESNOTICESNOTICESNOTICES The Wednesday Group is looking for members! We are a parish organisation that has been in existence for 60 years and more. We meet once a month on the second Wednesday of the month and start the morning with a Eucharist service and then move to the Koinonia room for tea (always good – sometimes better!) and then a speaker or some entertainment. It is a social group which is friendly and fun and we would welcome new members. Our aim is strictly social and we have built up a core of friends who are hopeful of spreading their friendship to others. Everyone is most welcome and we look forward to having you with us. For further information contact the parish office or Margot 0216812736 or Denise 0216893437.

VOLUNTEER NEEDED: Thanks very much to those who have volunteered. 1 parishioner still needed to fill gaps for providing and serving tea after 9h30 service (+/- 3 times a year) Contact the parish office ASAP parishoffice@str.org.za or 0216856752. We look forward to hearing from you!
