and he will make your paths straight"

Proverbs 3: 5-6

Collect - 7th after Trinity
Lord God, whose Son is the true vine and the source of life, ever giving himself that the world may live; may we so receive within ourselves the power of his death and passion that, in his saving cup, we may share his glory and be made perfect in his love; for he is alive and reigns, now and for ever.  Amen

                                    Notices

We would like to have an open house here at the vicarage on Watling Avenue on 18th August from 2.30pm - 5pm.  All are welcome to pop over and visit.  Ravi

We now have a book for any problems that are found in the fabric of the Church.  If anyone notices that something needs fixing, ie a broken chair, a tap that won't turn off, please make a note of it in this book, so that it can be looked at and repaired (hopefully).  Thank you.

The British Red Cross has contacted St Philips to offer a fully funded First Aid Workshop for a group of up to 15 people.  If you are interested in doing this workshop please contact Diane.

Food Bank Team,  We are on duty next at St Leonard’s on the 23rd August.
With grateful thanks to everyone who helps us so much.
