Saturday's News (from Julie)

The notice sheet can be found BY CLICKING HERE and includes 'What's On' in the church next week. Due to the new regulations mask wearing will be mandatory at church tomorrow. Although there is an exemption for singing, we would like to encourage people to keep them on. Hand sanitiser is available at all the entrances so please make use of that too. There will be no refreshments following the service, but we can still have our usual time of fellowship together. The notes from the prayer meeting for our mission partners from 5th December 2021 can be found BY CLICKING HERE

Christmas Hampers - an update from Keith... Thanks if you've already given - this is a final reminder to those who would like to give to those less fortunate, so they can enjoy some Christmas treats. Please bring or send your donations by this Sunday and place into the offering box by either cash or cheque made out to Dereham Baptist Church. Please put your gift in an envelope identifying your gift as for the hamper appeal. Alternatively, by bank transfer and noting it's for that purpose. If you have a needy friend or neighbour who needs support, you're building a relationship with and who would accept a blessing this Christmas - please email keith@lovedereham.org.uk and give their first name(s) and ages of any children. Finally, we're still in need of around twenty medium sized cardboard boxes without lids and Christmas wrapped. Please bring on Sunday.
