HELP WITH FLOWERS. Are you good at flower arranging? Would you have some spare time to help with the arrangement of flowers in the Church. If you are interested and would like more information, then please speak to Jill Brown.
THANK YOU TO JUDITH: On Sunday 26th January, we are holding a special event after the 10 a.m. service to thank Judith for her Ministry at St. Anne’s over the years (especially dealing with the doubly difficult period when the church was in Interregnum at the same time as Covid). For more details please speak to Mary-Rose or Ashley.
ST ANNE'S OPENING TIMES: Due to current building works, we are unable to open the church during the week, as we usually do. The church is open for all the usual services and events, such as daily Morning Prayer 0915 to 0945 monday and friday and other events publicised on the website. We hope the internal building work will be completed in December and the church can be open as usual.
ST ANNE'S WEBSITE: www.stanneslewes.org.uk - Our website offers resources for our growth in discipleship. On the website you can now find recent sermons collated in one place under the tag sermons. Also, we have a regular slot called Spiritual Reflections which aims to look at questions of faith in a fresh, imaginative way. Contact Ashley or Ben if you can't find the content.
ONLINE AND CARD TRANSACTIONS: Donations can also be made through our website (the DONATE button is in the top right-hand corner of every page).
