Housegroups Breakfast - Saturday 17th October This will start with a Morning Prayer at 8.30am in the Lady Chapel. Followed by Breakfast in the FWC. (Please ignore all other timings, we will start at 8.30am) Dear Church Family, We have 7 house groups currently at St Mary’s. A house group is a group of Christians who meet in each other’s homes to share life and to grow in faith together.  Each house group has its own structure and format decided on by the group. All offer friendship, prayer support and an opportunity to explore one’s faith. Some of the groups use study guides to study the Bible, others take current affair topics and examine them through a Christian lens, others use craft and visual aids to explore bible passages. Generally the house groups meet twice a month on an agreed day and time. If you would like to know more about being part of a house group or would like to do a trial visit to a house group to “dip your toes in” and see what it is all about, please speak to either Lucy revlucy@stmarysbeaconsfield.org.uk  or myself (as house group chaplain) revmargot@stmarysbeaconsfield.org.uk . We would be pleased to hear from you. Margot and Lucy Film Night - 25th October - CANCELLED It is with great reluctance and sadness that we have had to cancel the Film Night on 25th October. We are still looking to provide Christmas presents for the children and young people in Newham; we will now look to other sources. Wycombe Homeless Connection funding is also affected. Thank you to those who bought tickets and especially to those who have very kindly indicated that they do not require a refund.
