Saving a life!

A few years ago, our Christmas collection

went towards buying a defibrillator for

the village. The device was recently put to

good use when a resident took a turn for the worse.

The defibrillator saved the person’s life, and he and

his wife are most grateful.

Cobham Foodbank would be most

grateful for donations of: Tinned

potatoes, tinned custard, tinned

tomatoes, UHT Fruit juice or squash, Chocolate

spread.

Planned Giving update …

A big thank you to all those who have

responded positively to the recent

relaunch of the St. Mary’s Planned Giving Scheme.

In response to parishioner feedback about the

scheme, ’Count Me In’ tokens are being introduced

whereby participating members may take a token

from the basket provided at the Church entrance

and place it in the Offertory bags which are passed

around during the service. It is hoped that this

system enhancement will give reassurance to

parishioners that their contributions are included in

the formal Offertory process.
