RECEIVED WITH THANKS

 Gifts given in memory of Doug Pinner were equally shared between RNLI and St. Andrew`s.  We have recently received a cheque for £497.75 as our share and we thank Doug`s family for making this money available to us. 

The magnificent total amount donated is some indication of the high regard and affection with which Doug was held.  He will be greatly missed at our church - we have all lost a good friend.

THANK YOU......

... To all who helped with the Christmas church flowers and the Christmas Tree, the church looked beautiful.                                  

...Many thanks to everyone who supported and shared in the Advent Activities at Elcot. Also thank you for generously donating £256.74p to be shared equally between www.noreenskids.org in Romania and God's work at Elcot. 

With gratitude for this and all Christmas greetings received, I wish everyone God's Peace and Blessing for 2009,                          Sylvia Buttifant
