Facebook. You can follow us on Facebook “Ellesmere Methodist Church“, “Shropshire and Marches” and for the mobile outreach trailer “Memo Shropshire”.
Mothers & Toddlers.
Mothers bring their toddlers on Tuesday mornings to play in the schoolroom. If anyone would like to help the current volunteers please, they would be grateful. It would involve a commitment of only once per month, from 8.45 – 11.00 am, serving hot drinks and tidying up afterwards. Please speak to Julia.
Church cleaning We are grateful to our minister Rev. Julia for cleaning the church last weekend. This is really not her responsibility. Ruthie is out of action for a while so we desperately need offers of help please, which would lessen the responsibility of the very few who already clean– please speak to Ruthie.
If anyone has any item to add to these notices please contact Ruthie (email: alukundo@gmail.com) who will happily include it.
Please pass on these notices to anyone who may like to read them or who is unable to attend church.
Please note if you were not handed these notices to you personally, there are copies on the table in the foyer – please help yourself.
