Happy New Year!

A very Happy New Year to all our readers! We hope to have All Saints back in use in the near future - further updates will be posted when available.

Carol Singing

About a dozen intrepid singers and bucket rattlers, aided and abetted
by Nana the dog, took to the streets of Nocton under cover of darkness
on Sunday evening, inflicting their voices on the unsuspecting residents
of Wellhead Lane, Manor Court and The Avenue. Actually we were
told we sounded rather good!

A grand (and it was grand) total of £56.86 was raised, which with further
donations, including from the Village Hall Management Committee, came
to £35 for the church and £47 for our chosen charity, the Nomad Trust.

Thanks to all who donated and were so encouraging, to the Village Hall
Management Committee for the donation and the most welcome mulled
wine and mince pies, and of course to all those who took part in the singing.

We'll be back next year.... you've been warned!

Carol singing - reminder

Just a reminder that we will be singing carols round the village on
Sunday, 18 December. Meet at the village hall at 5 pm. It doesn't
matter if you can't sing! We need collectors too so all welcome!

Carol Singing

If you would like to join us for carol singing please meet at
the Village Hall on Sunday 18th December at 5.00pm.  We will
sing till around 6.30 and then we are invited to return to the
Village Hall for mince pies and mulled wine, kindly provided by
the Village Hall Committee. We need plenty of voices so come
along and have a festive sing!

Child sponsorship

All Saints has recently decided to sponsor a child in Gambia. We have
chosen to do this through a local charity named Snowballs in The
Gambia.  Linda Carpenter-Coxon who lives in the village regularly
visits the Tambana School project and keeps us up to date with
developments and provides photographs.  In her last visit, Linda
took out new school uniforms for the children. The money we
provide goes in some way to support our child with books and
uniform.

If you are interested in sponsoring a child, you can contact Linda on
01526 322410 and she will give you more details.  The cost is £30
a year to sponsor a child.
