The Butterfly Month The Butterfly Month 1 Church Activities - Sharon Goble The Pilgrim course has been meeting in Stoneleigh and Ashow giving all who want to come a midweek small group setting where we can explore the Christian faith together and see how it can be lived out each day. Pilgrim approaches the great issues of faith not through persuasion, but participation in a pattern of contemplation and discussion with a group of fellow travellers. The course is divided into six weeks at a time and has been meeting in late autumn, Lent and late spring. The next local Pilgrim course opportunity will meet on . This section of the course explores how Christians know and worship God. Its six sessions reveal the reasons why The Eucharist (aka Holy Communion) in sharing bread and wine is celebrated as a memorial of Christ’s saving passion and stands at the very heart of Christian worship. All are welcome, whether or not you have already taken part in a Pilgrim course. Do let Sharon know if you are interested in this or a new course starting in the autumn. On will take up the theme of celebration to mark the Queen’s 90�� birthday. All are welcome to the services and you do not need a ticket. The churches have purchased many copies of a souvenir book specially produced for this year which we are pleased to offer to those celebrating in our communities that day as a gift. The beautifully produced book, called The Servant Queen and the King She Serves uses the Queen’s own words to draw out the central role of her trust in Jesus Christ. We hope you will enjoy treasuring it as a souvenir and be interested to read her thoughts. We look forward to welcoming together the peoples of our communities and enjoying the day with you. 2 Church Activities - Sharon Goble Come and join the fun, games and activities through which we will explore Bible stories and faith together. The club is open to any children of primary school age as well as any young people who would like to come and muck in to help – as long as anyone under 18 has been registered to be with us by an adult. Under 5s are also welcome as long as their own adult carer stays with them to help them join in throughout. If you are an adult interested in getting involved, please contact Sharon (see page 4) and she’d love to chat with you about it. Registering for the club will take place on the door, but can be done in advance with Jackie at the Parish office [email protected] and 02476 415506. The Sunday celebration is for families to join in together and there will be no registration for this. A free course in will be delivered by Becki Coombe of the Learn2 Group . If you would like to take one of these free places please contact Reverend Sharon Goble. There are twelve free places available so first come first served. 3 Church Activities - Sharon Goble Breakfast Together: Bringing it all together and it’s still good to talk! Stoneleigh Church would like to invite together anyone who is involved in Stoneleigh community in its widest sense and we thought this would be fun over breakfast on Saturday 10th September 2016 from 8:30 – 10:30am at Stoneleigh Village Hall. (Can’t promise a full-English but we’ll do our best to honour those who give up a bit of Saturday morning!) The timing is influenced by the attempt to avoid any other diary plans in the diverse range of activities associated with Stoneleigh community. No one is excluded who wants to come, but we will prompt each organisation or group with an invitation to send at least one representative. We don’t want to overlook anyone, but you know who you are and we might not yet… so let us know if you are interested by emailing Sharon (details below). The agenda is very open-ended in that we simply envisage coming together to meet others, to talk informally about activities and businesses we are already planning and involved in, in the hope that we might strengthen community by getting to know one another and what’s going on better. We do have a vision that more partnerships, support and new ventures might emerge from this forum opportunity. We propose repeating this six-monthly, if there is a spark of interest. Hope to see you at some or all of these! God bless, Reverend Sharon Goble [email protected] 01608 682 282 07799220407 4 Ashow News - Steven Harvey The service at Ashow Church on Sunday 12�� June at 9.30 am will be celebrating the Queen’s 90�� Birthday.

Some PCC members stepped down after many years of service. We are most grateful for their input over the years. We welcomed a new member Richard Ashley, who along with Stephen Palmer, has been appointed to a new position of ‘deputy warden’. They will help Sarah and Ian in their duties and share responsibilities. In a break from tradition, following the short business meeting and coffee, we split into small groups to discuss ideas gathered from the questionnaire; these will be worked on by the PCC during the coming months. We were able to report at the APCM that our second submission to the Heritage Lottery Fund is now being processed. We expect to hear whether or not we are successful before the end of June and will let you know at that point of the arrangements we have made for the period when the building will be out of action. The joint church and Stoneleigh History Society concert performed by the Immanuel Ground Quire on the 7�� May was a ‘Heritage Lottery Sponsored Event’. This means that if we are successful in the second round submission we are set to receive the total of the ticket sales 6 for the evening adding another £770 to the Fabric Fund. Our thanks go to everyone who helped to make this very entertaining evening such a great success. May Film Night I am really sorry the advert in the May edition of the S&A News had the incorrect date for the Film Night. I apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused. DATES FOR YOUR DIARY Sunday 26�� June Church Teas 2-4pm This summer we have been serving tea and cake in the church every 4�� Sunday in the month. If you find yourself free please drop in. The History Society Exhibition on the Graveyard Project will also be open to browse through.

If you would like to join us or would like further details please telephone Sarah Ballinger (02476 715256) or Jackie Cubitt, Parish Office (02476415506) or email [email protected] 7 8 “The Heart of Stoneleigh” Defibrillator becomes a reality On Tuesday, 10�� May 2016, nine volunteers from Stoneleigh gathered in the Village Hall for two hours training from Bubbenhall Community First Responders (CFRs) in CPR and using the defibrillator. All agreed that the training was very good, with the necessary theory supplemented by plenty of practical hands-on sessions. By the time you read this, I hope the Ambulance Service will have accredited us and be in a position to give out the code to release the device from its cabinet in the event of an emergency. Always dial 999 first but the members of the Group have the code as well. If you do not know a Group member, please phone or text me on 07785 284482 for the code. I will try to arrange for at least two of us to attend. Let’s hope we never need to use the device but we have it if we do. Heartfelt thanks to all those who have made it possible. 9 STONELEIGH VILLAGE CLUB established 1856 Summer is in the air so why not visit the Club and Garden.

  • Warwick District Council Local Plan Examination
    Warwick District Council Local Plan Examination Matter 7c: Proposed housing site allocations, safeguarded land and direction for growth (Edge of Coventry) Written Statement by Warwickshire County Council A46 Link Road November 2016 1. Purpose of the Statement The purpose of this statement is to provide the Local Plan Inspector and those attending the Examination in relation to Matter 7c with details of the proposed A46 Link Road. It is not designed to form a rebuttal to any individual representations which have been made in response to the questions posed by the Inspector on Matter 7c. 2. Context Warwickshire County Council, in conjunction with Coventry City Council and Warwick District Council, is exploring ambitious proposals to ensure that the sub-region and its economy continues to benefit from a high quality transport network which supports access to jobs, improved business to business connectivity and sustainable housing and employment growth. Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council is joining with its Coventry and Warwickshire partners to explore these proposals. Coventry and Warwickshire has the fastest growing economy within the West Midlands. Infrastructure investment is needed in key corridors such as the A45 and A46 to provide the conditions for businesses to continue to invest in the area. An efficient transport network with sufficient capacity and resilience is key to maintaining and supporting future growth. The current major investment at Tollbar End near Coventry on the A45/A46 along with committed improvements at Binley (A46/A428) and Stanks near Warwick (A46/A425/A4177) demonstrate the importance of this corridor to the sub-regional economy. There is also an aspiration over time to see the A46 become an ‘Expressway’ between the M6/M69, M40 and M5.

  • Prayer Diary
    Shottery- Connecting & Growing Prayer Diary Since arriving last June as vicar of Shottery & Bishopton, Reverend Craig, with others in the church, have been keen to look at how St Andrew’s connects at a deeper level with the wider community. March 2020 “Much of my work in this early stage as been to get into our local schools and forge links through that ministry with children, parents and staff,” Reverend Craig said, “God looked at all that he had made and it was all very good.” “there is no substitute for ‘boots on the ground’ in this ministry and clergy simply need to get out there and be seen, only last week I had the joy of spending an hour Gen.1.31. in our local pub with two parents of children in our primary school chatting about life The environmental crisis has brought us back, urgently, to our relationship and faith. That wouldn’t have been possible if I hadn’t made these links in the first with creation. In the Scriptures we see God’s deep love for and delight in place.” His creation. In creation, God looks at the whole inhabited earth (oikumene) with its rich biodiversity of life and sees that it is all good, it is Connecting through social media is key too, “We are very fortunate to have a strong beautiful. Gen.1.31. ‘The Lord delights in His works, He looks upon the church congregation with good numbers attending weekly worship, but we want to earth.’ Ps.104.31/2. It is God’s world, ‘The earth is the Lord’s and all that let the community know what we are about using social media platforms to greater is in it.’ Ps.24.1.
