Notices
Giving. Thank you to all who give money regularly to this church using the envelope scheme. Unfortunately we do not have the next batch of envelopes yet and so will be putting temporary measures in place until they get sorted. Might now be a good time, however, for you to consider setting up a Standing Order instead? This is very convenient, both for you and for the DCC, and can be done weekly or monthly. If you choose this, our bank details are; Account name: St Anne & All Saints DCC, Sort code: 309354, Account number: 00160571.
The Annual Parochial Church Meeting will take place on Tuesday 30th April at 7.30 pm at St Peter’s.

Life Groups. Soon we will be starting new small groups where we can find out a bit more about how to live as a Christian. Small groups are a great place to really grow in our faith and understanding, and it would be great if all of us, no matter how old or new our faith, were able to join one. If you are interested, please speak to Clive.
Please pray for:-
• For the peace of the whole world, for the welfare of the Holy Church of God, and for the unity of all.
• The Global economies at this difficult time
• For all those using our building
• We pray for Bishop John and the other bishops who are gathering on Monday for the West Midlands Bishops’ annual residential.
• We pray for those who grow and produce our food in the most difficult conditions. We remember the hardships and distress of farmers dealing with livestock that have died, and those who are still to sow crops to harvest this year.
• We pray for God's blessing upon the church members and the local community.
• St Alban’s during their interregnum
• The Elliot family whose daughter Imogen is poorly
Pray for those in special need at this time and those recovering from illness:
Irene Haigh; Peter Soles; David Smith; Sheila Green: Ina Anstee; Ron Smith; Margaret Smith; Susan McMillan; Alan Stansfield; Imogen Elliot; Colin O’Shea; Jackie Schreiber; June Branion; Simon Hellberg; Steve Brooker George Adamantos; Tracey Griffiths
Prayer for Today
Risen Christ, your wounds declare your love for the world and the wonder of your risen life: give us compassion and courage to risk ourselves for those we serve, to the glory of God the Father. Amen.
