Members of the Congregation can you help ??
Baby and Toddler Group.
We are hoping to run the Toddler group from September on both Mondays and Thursdays. If anyone would like to help on either day we would be grateful for the extra pairs of hands!
Duties include working in the kitchen providing drinks and snacks for the Mums/Grans/Carers and the toddlers. We are also seeking help to run a craft table on Thursdays. We start about 9.30 and finish at 11.45 and currently working in teams we do one week in 4 but more people are welcome!
Please let Ann Crocombe or Fiona McSorley know if you would be willing to help out at this very worthwhile activity for our youngsters in the community.

The Croydon Refugee Centre is in need of :
- Mens clothing and shoes
- Womens Shoes
- Kitchen Items
- Toiletrries
- Food
- Shampoo
- Toothpaste
Please no toys or womens clothes and the centre is fully stocked in these items
All items need to be clean and in reasonably good condition.
Please rummage in your cupboards and donate any unwanted items to Debbie Brown.
You can leave your items in the office Mon -Thur 9am -2pm or bring to the service with you and leave in the porch on Sunday.
A very big thank you to everyone who contributes to this very worthy cause. I have taken car loads of goods to the Centre and continue to do so. You make the lives of those who arrive with nothing a little bit easier
Thanks very much
Debbie
Stamp Appeal
Between St John’s and 1st Purley Scout Troop 1 1/2 kilos of stamps collected between September and January including a number of collector stamps have been sent off this week to the Bone Marrow Research Trust. This equates to a minimum of £30 and 1 1/2hrs of life saving research. Brilliant given stamps would have probably just been thrown away with the envelope.
Huge thanks to everyone supporting the charity
Please save your stamps for me, useful guide:
- Any stamps (modern more valuable, old ones are pre-2008), foreign ones accepted please keep separate
- Minimise amount of card/paper attached, good guide is finger width (1cm) all the way round
- No pre-printed labels
Please place in the plastic tub at the back of the church
Thank you
Catherine Sands
