REACH NEWS: At the June PCC Meeting, the Council took note of budgetary restrictions and agreed therefore to apply for a modification of planning permission. This will enable the Church Building to be finished but will mean that the possible extension of the entrance foyer,as well as the extended car parking facilities will be delayed.
However, the schedule still expects a watertight, useable church to be delivered to us at the end of July with the aim of using it in its rough state for the special service on Sept 4th, for Paul & Clare's Farewell.
Gift Day Update: Many thanks to all who have so generously supported
our June Gift Day. The total amount (including pledges) was 66,000euros. With
6,000 euros of this going towards tithes to support other worthy building
projects around the world, this means that a glorious further 60,000euros will be added
to the REACH funds. In addition, commitments have also been made to donate
over £100 each month to St.Mark's via ICS. This is a wonderful response.
Praise God.....and thank you all!

Praise God - it really is all in his safe hands.
