Monday, 17th September - thieves!

Thanks to some watchful people, three thieves were spotted removing part of the roof from the vestry at the church last night (Sunday) ! The police were called and they escaped, however a good description of them and their car was given. Let's hope they'll soon be caught before they steal from other churches in the area. Unfortunately, they caused some damage which will need to be repaired as soon as possible, especially with this sudden cold, windy and rainy weather. Your continued watch over the church and your prayers, particularly at this time is most welcome. If you see anything suspicious please call the Police on: 0115 940 0999 ext.6370. All of the floor tiles and the majority of the old heating system have now been removed. Please be aware that a skip has now been placed on Station Road near the church gateway, which is needed to remove the waste. Unfortunately, it was not possible to place it within the church grounds, so please take more care than usual in that area.
