Thank you all very much for joining in the envelope challenge!

Some of this will buy some new openwork display screens for the back of church, which can also be used for exhibitions.

Who do you recognise?
Take a closer look and you might spot some people you know; the photo was taken at the Diocesan Synod in Cologne earlier this month, and which we told you about in a previous newsletter.
The photograph comes from the regular "Chaplaincy briefing" newsletter which contains lots of interesting insights into Safeguarding, Racial Justice, Refugees, Youth work, not forgetting the Diocesan Synod elections. Interested? Read the full briefing at this link: https://mailchi.mp/ac6e7dd0bd5f/chaplaincy-briefing-12744740?e=b759824f00
