St Mary Magdalene activities
The choir
Our robed choir is always looking to
welcome young singers or anybody who can sing regularly. The choir is affiliated
to the Royal School of Church Music. They practice most Thursday's from 7.00 to
8.00 pm and lead the music at the 10.30 am Communion and other appropriate
services. They sing anthems at major festivals and other special occasions. For
weddings, joint benefice services and carol services they combine with Bunny
choir. The choir leader, Bill Cooper, will be pleased to hear from anyone who is
interested in either joining the choir or simply helping with carol services.

The Tower captain is Joan Bird and there is bell ringing practice on Monday night from 7.30pm till 9.00pm. All are welcome and Bell
ringers need not be members of the Church congregation. The bells

Our Branch secretary is Janet Clothier and anyone interested in joining our Branch should contact her. The Annual Subscription is £22.
The Guild of Raphael
A group concentrating on Healing Ministry led by Diana Jones. Monthly meetings are held on Mondays at 7pm to 9:15 in members homes and all are welcome. At the meetings we enjoy a hot drink and biscuits and chat around a chosen subject related to health and healing. Then we review the prayer cards that have been left by the congregation and turn to God in prayer on behalf of those named on the prayer cards.
