DERVENTIO CHOIR- would like to express their thanks to all the members of All Saints church who helped to make our concert with you last Saturday such a wonderful event. Thank you for making the church space available to us and for all the help given in setting up and welcoming those attending. The choir was absolutely delighted with the concert and loved the setting and the sound within the church. It was amazing to see a full church – our biggest audience ever – and we hope to make a donation of about £500 to DerbyFood4Thought charity. We would love to return to All Saints church in the future and hope to make it one of our regular concert venues. Peter Branson

HELP NEEDED– The Our Mickleover spring fair Sunday 26th May 3pm-6:30pm. The Mickleover Churches Together are running a tombola in aid of Padley, we need suitable prizes donated and plenty of volunteers on the day. We will need a number of helpers for at least half an hour or more before the start for setting up the stall, and then helping staff the stall during the fair, particularly during the first hour or two – things may quieten down a bit after the initial rush. We’ll also need help to dismantle and put things away after. Please speak to Mike Shooter for details. mikeshooter@hotmail.co.uk.

THY KINGDOM COME- is a global ecumenical prayer movement that invites Christians around the world to pray for friends and family to come to know Jesus.  It started in 2016 as an invitation from our Archbishops to the Church of England and has grown internationally and ecumenically.  This year we invite you to be a part of this from Ascension to Pentecost (9^th-19^th May).In each church you will find Novena study guides for the 10-day period, also a Prayer Journal, a great way to note prayers and the answers that come. Please do take one or both of these for your own use.   Each day we will be meeting to pray for our community in All Saints church at 8 am and all are welcome.  On 8^th May the Vicarage home group will be setting up Prayer stations in All Saints church for use in the 10 days so do come and make use of them either with your home group or when you are in the church on Wednesday morning or Sunday. (We are hoping to open the church on other mornings too – please contact Peter if you can help to steward) or, you can use the posters in the graveyard to pray outdoors. Please do join with us.  Helen Walley
