AV at Holy Ascension

We have a rota of four people, including two teenagers, running the Audio Visual system at Holy Ascension. We are looking for further people to be able to do the AV during Benefice Services. It requires about 30 minutes to be shown how to use it and one Sunday to sit alongside the person doing it, before joining the rota. Please contact Steve Rowley on Telephone Number: 01451 833877.

Collect for the Third Sunday of Advent

O Lord Jesus Christ, who at your first coming sent your messenger to prepare your way before you: grant that the ministers and stewards of your mysteries may likewise so prepare and make ready your way by turning the hearts of the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, that at your second coming to judge the world we may be found an acceptable people in your sight; for you are alive and reign with the Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.
