Well we have certainly seen some changes in the weather during the last two months, from dry and sunny to rather a lot of rain! Fortunately for us, nothing in comparison to what the people of North West Pakistan have experienced.
We have been shocked and saddened by the death of Rose Osborne on the 18th August, and assure her family of our sympathy and prayers at this sad time. There will be a service at Stopsley Crematorium on Friday 3rd September at 1.00 pm; then there will be a Service of Thanksgiving at Tilehouse Street at 2.00 pm. followed by light refreshments. Friends will be welcome at either or both of these services.
Our friends who continue in our thoughts and prayers are named in the printed edition of Outlook
It was good to hear that Mary Bullard celebrated her 100th birthday in July, and Mary wanted to say a big 'thank-you' for the beautiful pot plant she received from the church. It was also good to congratulate Eileen Smith who actually came to a Church Meeting on her 80th birthday!
We rejoice with Anne and Ken King who now have a grand-daughter Amy. Our congratulations and best wishes to Amy's parents, Debbie and Dan Hodson.
Congratulations also to Steve and Alison Anderson, and Harry, on the arrival of Tavis Robert and Dougie Steven. We rejoice also with the proud grand-parents, Marion and Malcolm Mallett. The twins were born on the 14th August.
We also celebrated two weddings at church during August, Gemma Hills and Mark Smith on the 21st August and Bekah Deller and Chris Matthews on the 28th August.
We offer to both of these couples our very best wishes for their future happiness. Chris and Bekah's new address can be found in our up-dated Names and Addresses book.

John and I would like to say thank-you so much for the fuchsia plant and beautiful card which Peter delivered on our special golden wedding day, the 18th June. With love to all the church family. John and Pauline Edwards. I would like to say thank-you to everyone at church for the lovely flowers given to me when I fell off my bike and hurt my foot. We wish to extend our thanks to all in the church for periodic gifts of flowers, calls and visits made during Helen's three month acquaintance with a walking frame. Our gratitude goes especially to those who each week give flowers, and the teams who arrange and deliver them to various recipients. I hope to be back at church soon. A big thank-you for the lovely flowers which were delivered to us for our Wedding Anniversary. They were much appreciated. |
Thank-you so much for the beautiful flowers which we were given in mid-July. They were put into Marion's bicycle basket while she was at Monday's "Keep Fit", otherwise known, colloquially, as "Keep Fat"! We then said, "Who are they to be delivered to?" - a false assumption as it turned out. We looked at the label and saw it said "To Marion and David, wishing you a Happy Anniversary". We checked the date and to the astonishment of the "Keep Fit" ladies, it was our Wedding Anniversary which we had 'overlooked'! Thank-you Gill! P.S. We did celebrate the next day, otherwise we might have missed the great day! Thank-you for the lovely flowers, most unexpected and what I presume were in recognition of my 93rd birthday. I also had another surprise which was a letter from the government asking me for my views on a memorial to honour all those who worked at Bletchley Park and its outstations during World War II. I can only surmise that now there are only a few of us left. |
