We begin with the rhyme 17th J & C Bailey 24th S Butt E Thomas “Remember, remember the fifth of November, 1st Dec A & J Hewett Gunpowder, treason and plot.” I just hope this year nobody creates too big a bang! Some fireworks are WICK CHURCH FLOWERS rather loud but these days, I prefer the coloured ones. 2nd-9th Mrs Matthews (Remembrance) 16/23rd Mrs Crossley Then only a week later we remember the fallen of two 30th/7th Mrs Milton World Wars, and all conflicts since, on Remembrance WICK CHURCH CLEANING Sunday and Remembrance Day. 2nd Mrs Lawrence 9th Mrs Russell 16th Mrs Hewett 23rd Mrs Burgess With all the significant anniversaries coming into date the 30th Mrs Higgs 7th Dec Mrs Butt local memories and links are all there to remember, those who gave their all. DOYNTON CHURCH SIDESMEN I am also given to remember this is a time of year when it gets cold, 3rd G Copping 17th D Vaudrey dark and often rather wet and that I should remember my 24th P Rees Dec 1st E Crew neighbours who feel the cold more and perhaps ensure they are ok. Not everyone has a nice log fire. DOYNTON CHURCH FLOWERS 3rd Diane Ashman 10th/17th Elsie Fishlock The time of year also reminds me as we have put our clocks back 24th Jenny Bartram Dec 1st Wendy Cashmore (who was late for church or work!) that autumn is now fully on us and the leaves are changing and dropping to the floor. To me this reminds me of how sometimes we need to literally take a leaf out of our visible world and remember that there perhaps comes a time to let go of what has been and rest until the new beauty becomes clear. Benefice Contacts May I end by hoping that as we enjoy this time of change in our VICAR Rev Tim Bell 9373581 weather and the trees around us, that we remember the people Wick Colin Bailey 07990507259 around us and perhaps change how often we think of or pray for Deputy Warden [email protected] others. Doynton Warden Mr N Hewitt 9373412 Dyrham Warden Mr P Highway 07753986430 When I remember I often start with “Dear God, I was thinking of…..” [email protected] Wick URC Rev James Jang 9323388 Enjoy your November.
