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).

Eco- Tip: From Friends of the Earth: Save water. Don't wash the dishes let them pile up to the point where you're actually wondering if it's ok to eat soup from a dog's bowl. Then, and only then, casually load the dirty pots into a dishwasher. Press the start button. Now sit down and catch your breath. A fully loaded dishwasher can be more water efficient than washing by hand. Even if you're using a washing-up bowl. Are you getting the hang of being environmentally friendly?
As ever, you’ll find the YouTube services on Sundays here:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSZkv-Db2MFXsQEzhra0azw/videos This Sunday the 25th June is led by Revd. Andrew Mumford. Next Sunday the 2nd July is led by Tom & Lucille Rowse.
Thinking of you and missing you at church: Bruce and Shirley, Margaret and Jayne Black, Emma, Bradley and CJ.
The next edition of the notices will be available from Sunday 9th July Please send any items for inclusion to Sarah before Wednesday 5th July. Thank you! These notices will be updated twice a month, so please hold onto them, don’t delete them, until you get a revised version. That will save us time and money in unnecessary reprinting and will do another small bit for the environment. The notices are also published once a fortnight on our church website at www.falmouthmethodist.org.uk
