Foodbank:
So far in 2023 we, KCM and other hall users have donated 70kilos of goods to the Foodbank. Well done to all. Nona
Our Foodbank collection bin is now in the entrance at New Street. The need for the Foodbank grows continually and we would encourage you to donate what you can. Thank you.
Annual Leave: Revd. Andrew will be on annual leave from Easter Monday for a week. Andrew and Ruth will be celebrating their Silver Wedding Anniversary 11th April.
Regeneration Group: We have made some progress in that we now have a quantity surveyor to help us negotiate with developers and advise us on the costs we might incur with a new build. We are still in negotiations with the developer on the outskirts of Falmouth, but the wheels turn slowly, we are looking all the time for any sites that may present themselves as more suitable. We meet regularly and if you feel you would like to be involved speak to a steward for information of our next meeting.
Pop-Up Choir: The Pop-Up Choir will help to lead singing at FMC during services. They will ‘pop-up’ unannounced and if you would like to join in then please speak to one of this group after the service or just pop up!
Pastoral Team Church Lunch: The Pastoral team are planning a church lunch out hopefully after a service. We intend to hold this at the old water sports centre now the Windjammer Café. The café, we thought, is close enough to walk from church or has a carpark next door. We propose either April 2nd or May 14th please let Jeanette or Tracy know if you would be interested in this venture.
In our prayers, we continue to hold the following before God: from Falmouth: Bruce & Shirley Keer, June Martin, John Bennett, Gwen Dunstan, Gill Wilkinson, Bab Minns, and Ruth Bowen, and the residents and staff of care homes, especially Langholme. And for all those who have been affected by the recent chest infections doing the rounds, and for all those suffering with the effects of Covid (short-term and long-Covid).
