Alpha Course
The Alpha course continues this Tuesday 1st July 7 - 9pm and will run every Tuesday until 29th July and following a short break in August will resume for a further two weeks in September. It's not too late to join the course and if you would like to attend or have invited someone to attend, please let Sonia in the office know as she holds the guest list. Please pray for Alpha both now and during the course.
Praying for our benefice - 5 minutes at 5pm each Sunday
We are introducing a regular time of prayer for the church family to pray for the benefice. The idea is that at 5pm every Sunday, wherever you are, whatever you're doing, take 5 minutes to pause and pray in the silence or aloud, as you feel comfortable. Prayer flyer sheets are enclosed with Lifeline and are also available at the back of church and on our website.
Shifting Pews
We are moving pews that have been in storage at the back of Walton Church for a number of years into an alternative storage place to create more space at the back of church. This will take place towards the end of June. If you have a trailer and or would be able to help, please have a word with Andy Savage (Walton) 12stringandy@gmail.com Thank you.
Young People Chat & Games
We will next be meeting this Monday 30th June 6.30 - 7.30pm in the Mission Church. Come along and enjoy chat, snacks and games, indoors and outdoors. This is open to all young people in year 6 and above.
First Sunday Breakfast
Our next First Sunday breakfast will be on Sunday 6th July from 9.45 - 10.15am in the Mission Church. Do come along, bring a friend and enjoy a delicious breakfast before the service begins. If you would be interested in helping serve on the team, please speak to Sarah Ruddock (Mission Church).
Bereavement Cafe

Connections@the Mission
You are invited to Connections at the Mission on Thursday 17th July 2.30 - 4pm in the Mission Church. Margaret Long (Mission Church) will be talking about the Christian evangelist George Muller. This will be followed by tea, cake and chat.
New Parish Safeguarding Officer
We are looking for a new parish safeguarding officer, with a primary focus on the Mission Church, to join our existing team. If your usual place of worship is the Mission Church and you would like to know more, please contact either Ana or one of the current parish safeguarding officers, Jenny Martin (Parish Church Street), Pauline Hatrey (Walton), Steve King (Compton Dundon). You can find their contact details in Life magazine or on our noticeboards.
First Aiders
As part of our health and safety policy review, we are trying to discover whether any members of our churches have a current first aider qualification. If that is you, please talk to either Sonia in the office or David Hatrey.
The Coffee Chat and snacks team would like to invite you for our summer cream tea at the Mission Church on July 19th form 10:30 -12. There is a sign up sheet in each of our churches. There is no charge but donations are welcome.
Bakers would you be able to make some scones for the 19th?
Please do let Se Rachel know! Many thanks.
Payments to church
For anyone writing a cheque to give money to the Mission Church, or the Parish church, please can the cheque be made out to ' the Parochial Church Council of Street' or 'the PCC of Street', as this is what is on the paying in slips, and Lloyds are becoming stricter on the correct labelling of cheques.
