Jackdaw Chatter - The Quarterly Magazine about Stow-cum-Quy
Lode Chapel
On one of the occasions that I have attended Catholic mass I noticed that
the priest ended with the words "mass is over, but the service begins".
Too often in the church’s history we’ve forgotten that we exist
not to serve ourselves, but to show God’s love to the world, and in particular
to the communities in which he places us. For that reason I am happy to tell
you about the following activities coming up during June:
ENGLAND’S WORLD CUP MATCHES ON A BIG SCREEN
For the World Cup in 2006 Lode Chapel created a family-friendly space for
people to get together and watch the England matches on a big screen. This
year we’re doing the same in Bottisham. We’ll follow England all
the way through to the final (if they make it), but here are the details for
the matches that we’re certain they are playing:
… ENGLAND v USA, Saturday 12th June.
Venue: Bottisham Primary School. Doors open 7.00pm.
… ENGLAND v ALGERIA, Friday 18th June.
Venue: Bottisham Primary School. Doors open 7.00pm.
… SLOVENIA v ENGLAND, Wednesday 23rd June.
Venue: Queen’s Court. Doors open 2.30pm.
Children will need to be accompanied by an adult, but as it’s always
better to watch these big sporting occasions in a crowd why not join us. Entry
will be free, there’ll be cheap soft drinks and snacks and we’ll
have face-paint and some special tournament guides available. See you there!
QUEEN’S COURT SUNDAY
In December of last year I began work as chaplain at Queen’s Court and
I’m happy this year to be leading a special service to celebrate the
life of older people in our community on Sunday 13th June.
… Celebration Service in Queen’s Court Day Centre at 3.00pm,
… followed by refreshments and a Volunteer Fair at 4.00pm.
