Holy Communion Note: When coming for Holy Communion –
be modestly dressed, be present for the Service, don’t wear lipstick as this sticks to
the Holy Spoon and also stains the Communion cloth.
Ensure you prepare yourselves spiritually with prayer, fasting and confession.
Parking: Please be careful where you park your car so as not to upset our neighbours and to avoid
being fined.
Please Note: You are also reminded that the use of fire-crackers etc is not only impious and disrespectful but also illegal.
Donations for flowers for the Epitaphios: Those
wanting to give a donation towards buying flowers for the Epitaphios may do so at
the Church. This will enable us to buy flowers of the same type and the
required colours so that the decoration of the Epitaphios will be of the
highest quality.
