WIVES GROUP REUNION
In the Autumn the Wives Group will have been meeting regularly for forty years. We are planning a reunion on October 24th. and are trying to trace anybody who was a member in the early days, or who has been a member at any time over the last 40 years, so that we can invite them to a special morning service and a celebratory luncheon.
The Wives Group is still very active and friendly with around 50 members, but we are no longer the ‘Young Wives’ as we were once!
If you would like to reminisce and meet old friends in Sheringham, please ring Kim on 01263 820278, or Anne on 01263 824887. Please contact us by
July 31st. if possible.

A LETTER FROM NEPAL
Dear Sylvia ,
Jai masi and greetings from my family and all the brothers and sisters of Berea Church. We are very happy that the Lord has opened his heart and poured his blessings upon us.
Well, we got that 1400 pound that you had sent in our finance committee bank account. It has arrived in our bank account on 28th of May. We received on total Nrs. 1,51,662. and the exchange rate was 1 pound = 108.33 Nrsl.
We are very thankful to the Lord for his blessings and we are also thankful to you and your church for all your effort.
I am sure that this money will help to further the God's kingdom and people will realise the love and blessings of the Lord ultimately. We will send you all the financial details later, very soon.
this much for now,
Take care, have a great time in Jesus
with all the blessings...
Norpu
A Flower Arrangers Prayer
May God grant
that our hearts,
our eyes and our hands
may receive His inspiration
enabling us to glorify His house
with the beauty
of the leaves and blossoms
which He has created.
HAVE YOU NOTICED OUR NEW OFFERTORY BAGS?
A big thank you to Maureen Conlon for the very attractive collection bags and for the refurbishment of the two kneeling stools at the Communion table. We appreciate the hours she must have spent on this project.
