ELECTORAL ROLL: Every six years we are required under Church Representation Rules to completely renew the Electoral Roll. The new roll is due this year and everyone who wishes to be on the roll has to apply. Notice of the preparation of a new roll can be found on the main notice boards and in the porches of the churches. The forms do not have to be returned until 17th March. The Electoral Roll is the parish church’s register of electors. In the same way that being on the civic Electoral Roll allows you to vote in parliamentary and local elections and referenda, joining the Church Electoral Roll means that you can vote on Church matters, attend the Annual Parochial Church Meeting (APCM) and stand for election to the PCC. EMMAUS SUPPER: Emmaus Suppers for exploring discipleship take place on the fourth Wednesday each month at Holy Cross Church. Next supper 27th February to which all are welcome. BISHOP’S LENT APPEAL: The focus of the Lent Appeal this year will be Mental Health, and the support of people, especially children and young people, with mental health difficulties. ADVANCE NOTICES
