We’re looking forward to celebrating Harvest on two occasions this month – Sunday 1st October in the Family Service at 9.30am and on Sunday 8th October when we will have a Family Barn Dance led by Jo and Janis Zakis with a Bring and Share Supper – this will definitely be a fun afternoon.
Praise and Play look forward to welcoming under-fives and their grown-ups into St James Church on Monday mornings from 9am– 10.30am. (No session on 23rd October – half term)
Light Party – 31st October – more details later, check the website www.tdichurches.co.uk.
Saturday 7th October the Indoor Craft Market will meet in St James Hall from 9am- 1pm. There’s a wonderful range of stalls so be sure not to miss it.
Once you’ve finished in the market pop into church for a coffee and chat. We’re there every Saturday from 10am–12noon.
Tuesday Together also continues every week so come along for a cuppa between 10am-12 noon to meet old friends and make new ones. We’d love to see you. For those who wish
to attend, there is also a Tuesday morning Communion Service starting at 9.45am.
Knitting for Beginners meets on Monday evenings from 6.30-8pm in St James, Thrapston and is a group where you can come along and learn how to knit or crochet. It’s free, a lot of fun and those teaching have plenty of patience. No need to book or even bring your own knitting at the beginning. For more details contact Sue on 01832 733717.
If anyone would like to learn to ring the bells please e-mail tdichurches@gmail.com to express your interest. Ringers meet on Monday evenings to practice but teaching sessions can be arranged for those who are interested.
