Can you help at BWI? BWI is looking for volunteers to come and read with the children. If anyone from S Martin's Church would like to do this, please will they phone the Head, Gill Westbrook, on 01895 633520 Hillingdon Foodbank For the duration of the renovation project, the Foodbank collection bins have been relocated to the Hall, in the corridor. Please leave any food donations there rather than in church until further notice. Thank you. Intercessions Board Please note that the Intercessions Board has been moved to the Hall. New LM Lent/Spring rota now available For anyone that did not receive it via email please let the Parish Office know to ensure we add you to the recipient list. Also, if any one would like to step up and read, intercede or become a Eucharistic Minister please let one of the Clergy or Parish Office know. It is an amazing way to enrich, not only your worship here at S Martins, but all those at each service. We would especially appreciate some extra servers at the 8.00am Mass but all Masses are welcome.
Record of Family Worship If you wish your child to be considered for a school place in a local Church School, you must ensure you sign the Record of Family Worship Forms. The clergy wish to give as much support as possible to any applications. Parents must provide evidence they have worshiped at S Martin’s for the length of time required by the school’s admissions criteria. Make sure you check the school’s website for details. Attendance sheets available in 3 places in the Church.
