Jesus said, “the kingdom of heaven will be like this….
For it is as if a man, going on a journey, summoned his servants and entrusted his property to them; to one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one, to each according to his ability.”Matthew 25:14
This Lent we will again be running the Talents Scheme to help towards Cranleigh Parish Room fund. Our wonderful Parish Room is already enriching our lives together – but it still needs paying for.
To support this project, we are asking you to take the £10 gift offered to you under the Talents Scheme on 2+3 March – and then multiply it, through your own talents, and donate the money raised back to the project, handing it in on or before the Feast of Pentecost which falls on Sunday 9th June.
Suggestions include growing plants from seeds, organise a social event, offer a service to friends and family, make and sell cakes, offer a lesson if you have a particular skill. Remember you can go it alone or group together with others to produce a joint Talent event. All your talents are valued and valuable so do put them to good use this Lent and Easter. If you need any support or have any questions or would like your event publicised, please contact the Parish Office (01483 272075 or office@cpcb.org.uk
To engage further with ‘ The Word Who is Life’ there is an opportunity for the women of the Diocese to meet with Bishop Richard to explore the role of women in our Diocese: what they are doing, what they would like to achieve, what they can offer and what the Diocese can offer them. See fliers on the notice boards.
Some of us have already decided to go to this event. If you would like to join us or would like more information, contact Bridget Eacott (Tel 892406 or email bmeacott@hotmail.com).
Lent Groups
Don’t forget to sign up for the Groups for Lent. Mondays at Bramley, Thursday evenings at Cranleigh Catholic Church and Friday afternoons at St Nicolas Anglican Church. The Methodist Church is also joining us in using the same material this year. We need to know that you wish to join in good time because we have to buy the book we shall be using.

This year It is Christ Church who are organising the service for all our surrounding villages outside of Cranleigh. It is an ecumenical service written by the Christian women of Slovenia.
We will be praying and sharing with people in over 120 countries and islands around the world.

CAMEO
My cancelling the trip has caused much disappointment to those who look forward to my annual visit. Please join me in praying that Burkina Faso and its neighouring countries will overcome the current difficulties and thus make it possible for me to return at some time in the future. With love to you all, Gillie”
The next Guildford Deanery Initial Safeguarding Awareness Training has been arranged for the above date, time and venue. If you will attend this event please RSVP to – safeguarding@dabnet.org . It is also possible to book online for this session via the Diocesan Website in the Safeguarding Section under Courses and Events.
A reminder that this training is for everyone but particularly for those who work with or minister to Vulnerable Groups (Children and Adults at Risk. ) It is the expectation of the Bishop, Trustees and Safeguarding Commission that this initial training is undertaken and refreshed every three years. New Volunteers should undertake the Initial Training within the first year of being appointed. A Refresher Training Programme is now being rolled out. People are welcome to attend initial and refresher sessions in other Deaneries if this is more convenient.
The next Guildford Refresher Training session is due to take place in October ‘19, further details can be found on the Diocesan website.
