Due to a fantastic response from the village regarding our forthcoming Progressive Dinner, we are looking for two more hosts.
It really doesn’t have to be Cordon Bleu and if you haven’t hosted before we can give you plenty of hints and tips to make it as easy as possible.
Please contact Sarah Allitt on allittsarah@gmail.com, 07834370767 or 01295 730634
You are invited to join us at the following services at St Etheldreda:
Good Friday (15 April) – Stations of the Cross at 12 noon
Fourteen illustrations of events leading up to the crucifixion will be placed around the church and the congregation will visit each station, following the evocative story of Jesus’ journey to the cross and singing one verse of a hymn at each picture.
This will be followed by a simple lunch (soup and roll) in the Old School Hall at 12.30pm in return for a small donation.
Easter Day (17 April) – Easter Day Holy Communion Service at 10.30am
We look forward to welcoming you as we celebrate Easter. This will be a simple service with a short sermon and Holy Communion. It’s especially suitable for young families with the possibility of chocolate if the Easter Bunny arrives!
We hope you can join us for one or both of these events.
Please join us for a Mothering Sunday service which is especially suitable for young families:
At St Etheldreda Horley
Sunday 27 March at 11.00am.
Everyone is welcome – we look forward to seeing you.
The highlight of Horley’s Social Calendar is back. The 11th June is the date to meet up with new and familiar faces and sample the culinary delights of fellow Horley residents.
We meet at The Red Lion where you will receive the first of three envelopes detailing where you will go for your starter. There you will leave your £25 – and please bring a bottle of wine per person to give your first host. After two further courses in different locations we will go back to the pub.
The Progressive Dinner is always a great night and raises very much needed funds for the church.
We are currently recruiting hosts and taking names of those attending – please contact Sarah Allitt on allittsarah@gmail.com, 07834370767 or 01295 730634
