Congratulations
Congratulations to Sam and Bryn who were married in St Disen’s Church last Saturday, 15th September. The looks on everyone’s faces, especially Sam and Bryn’s says it all.
‘All things bright and beautiful’
Thank you God for flowers
A poster put together by our Tiddlywinks Group to remind us that God is the creator of all lovely things.
Tiddlywinks is especially for babies and young children with their parents/carers. We meet in the church hall every first and third Wednesday of the month, 9.30am-11.30am.
Afternoon Tea at St Disens
Preparing tea
Enjoying afternoon tea
A cheerful, chatty group of church friends came together on Sunday afternoon to enjoy a special tea, including egg sandwiches, scones with cream and jam, Victoria sponge and apple cake, to celebrate the end of our Gift Week.
Refugee Support Group
The Bradninch Refugee Support Group is planning to hold a further three collections for good quality clothes, food and toiletries. These will be on Saturdays, September 8th, 15th and 22nd from 10.0am–12noon in St Disen’s Hall.
Support has been amazing in the past— keep it going!!!
Come for Coffee
Our 4th Wednesday coffee mornings are proving very successful, so we have decided to extend them.
The VERY informal, and free, coffee mornings will now be held on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays of each month, from 10.30 –12noon. Do please come and join us!
Church Flowers
Beautiful flower arrangements in church this week. Thank you, Sue Stanbury and Hazel Excell.

Gift Week & Afternoon Tea
St Disen’s will be holding its annual Gift Week from 2nd to 8th September. As in previous years all monies raised will go directly to the care and maintenance of the church and church hall. Please help us to continue to look after these buildings. Thankyou
And, to mark the end of Gift Week we are holding a Thank you Tea at 4.00pm on Sunday 9th September. All welcome.
Knit & Natter
Knit & Natter returns on Tuesday 18th September from 2.00 – 4.00pm in St Disen’s Church Hall. Help is available with your knitting and crochet if you need it, but please bring along any craft. Light refreshments served.
The Children’s Society
A most successful coffee morning was held on 2nd August to coincide with the annual opening of the collection boxes. A grand total of £911.50 has been raised this year. A big thank you to everyone – all that loose change adds up!
Coffee Mornings
Thank you to all who supported our recent coffee mornings in aid of our organ fund and the Childrens Society which between them raised some £400. But coffee mornings aren’t all about making money. They’re about meeting and making friends over a cup of coffee (or tea). So why not come and join us at our next Coffee Morning on Wednesday 22nd August at 10.00am in the Church Hall.
