I'd like to thank everyone who has posted such kind comments to me on this page and elsewhere this week. I've read and appreciated each one.

Here's a cartoon, 'Water', originally published in the Church Times in 2021, also to be found in the latest book of my cartoons, The PCC Strikes Back. I'll post the link below.

This cartoon is available on my CartoonChurch website for republication in church magazines, on a 'pay what you can afford' basis. Again, I'll link in the comments.

Thank you again,
Dave

Todays service from St Matthew’s Church.

Our dear friend and Vicar, The Reverend Alan Jewell took his last service on Sunday morning. St Matthew’s Church was very well attended by the Parishioners. He and Rose will be missed, but also wished well on the next chapter of their lives.

It is with mixed emotions that these Church Notices are announced.
As our Vicar has stated it will be his last. Soon he and Rose are moving to Margate to be near family. They will both be missed very much as they have been central to our community
I'm sure we want to wish them well in the next chapter of their lives.
Thankyou from us all.

The Bank Holiday held a delicious cake and cuppa fundraiser afternoon at St Cross. It was very well attended by the community and raised just over £300. A great achievement helped by some fabulous bakers.
Thanks to all involved.
