General Notices
THANKS FOR ALL THE HARVEST EFFORTS! Well done to the decorators
and supper providers. The bags of goods were well received and Chris
Senior sends thanks for the donations which raised £86 for Framework.
Instead of Harvest food baskets, a card will go to those old friends who are
unable to get to church. Please see Rick, Margaret Hicking or John Rigby if
you know anyone who would like a visit.
ALTAR SERVERS: We have in recent years maintained a good number of
altar servers at All Hallows, to assist in our worship at the Parish Communion
and other services. However, in order to maintain the standard of service we
have become accustomed to we now require new recruits from members of
our congregation, young and older. Full training is given to all who wish to
become servers. If you should be interested in taking up this important lay
ministry or would like further information, please contact Richard Ogier
(Telephone: mobile 07887 531 152 or email [email protected]).

Readings for Parish Communion
Philippians 4: 1 - 9
Therefore, my brothers and sisters, whom I love and long for, my joy and crown,
stand firm in the Lord in this way, my beloved.
I urge Euodia and I urge Syntyche to be of the same mind in the Lord. Yes, and I
ask you also, my loyal companion, help these women, for they have struggled
beside me in the work of the gospel, together with Clement and the rest of my coworkers, whose names are in the book of life.
Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice. Let your gentleness be
known to everyone. The Lord is near. Do not worry about anything, but in
everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made
known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will
guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Finally, beloved, whatever is true, whatever is honourable, whatever is just,
whatever is pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable, if there is any
excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
Keep on doing the things that you have learned and received and heard and seen
in me, and the God of peace will be with you.
Matthew 22: 1 - 14
Once more Jesus spoke to them in parables, saying: ‘The kingdom of heaven
may be compared to a king who gave a wedding banquet for his son. He sent his
slaves to call those who had been invited to the wedding banquet, but they would
not come. Again he sent other slaves, saying, “Tell those who have been invited:
Look, I have prepared my dinner, my oxen and my fat calves have been
slaughtered, and everything is ready; come to the wedding banquet.” But they
made light of it and went away, one to his farm, another to his business, while the
rest seized his slaves, maltreated them, and killed them. The king was enraged.
He sent his troops, destroyed those murderers, and burned their city. Then he
said to his slaves, “The wedding is ready, but those invited were not worthy. Go
therefore into the main streets, and invite everyone you find to the wedding
banquet.” Those slaves went out into the streets and gathered all whom they
found, both good and bad; so the wedding hall was filled with guests.
‘But when the king came in to see the guests, he noticed a man there who was
not wearing a wedding robe, and he said to him, “Friend, how did you get in here
without a wedding robe?” And he was speechless. Then the king said to the
attendants, “Bind him hand and foot, and throw him into the outer darkness,
where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” For many are called, but few
are chosen.’
