Also included below along with the Weekly Sheet, we have a sheet with notes of the Saints' days of the week and details of a Weekend Retreat, led by Douglas, at Douai Abbey entitled 'Spiritual Vision of St Bonaventure'. There are prayers for Ukraine and for peace in the world. In addition, we have our services for July and there is a notice about this year's Ride and Stride. Do read Douglas' sermons in the Selected Sermons section, which can be found at this link.


Finally, my thanks to all who sponsored me and the other ’Chieveley Chaps’ in the Big Golf Race fundraising campaign. I am glad to say that the whole team completed the challenge on 17 June and we have raised almost £14,000 for this good cause. You can still donate if you wish by visiting justgiving.com and searching for ’Chieveley Chaps’ - all donations are still welcome, however big or small! Donations should be made to the page in the name of Mike Bee.


Please do still encourage others to keep in touch with what is going on by signing up to these updates just cut and paste the link to them in an email: https://mailchi.mp/d58d3b280189/east-downland-sign-up

Very importantly, if there are any people who you know would like a hard copy of this then please print it off for them or let me know, and I’ll take care of it.


For now, as always, all the best, God bless, and keep safe


John
