Church News & Notices

14th June - Notices

Monday Club meets tomorrow, 15th June at 1,30 pm. The speaker will be David Hearn who will take you on a Liverpool Safari.

Open-Door Coffee meets this coming Friday, 19th June between 10.00 am and 12 noon, in the Lounge

The amount raised by our Strawberry Tea with plant sale held on 6th June ultimately increased to £1,003.28.

Could all those who plan to attend at the joint service at St Stephen’s, with the meal to follow on 12th July please sign the list at the back of the Church. This is for catering purposes, and the list will be there for the next couple of Sundays. Please indicate if you require a lift to the service as transport by car will be readily provided. Please do not hesitate to ask.   

Our service next week, will be at the usual time of 10.00 am and will be led by Tim. You may have seen in the Messenger that there was to be a Church meeting during next week’s service, but that meeting has now been rearranged to 6th September.  

The Joint Council deliberated at some length at their last meeting about the need to improve security for the safety of all users of the building. They are looking at various means of achieving this and more details will follow. One decision concerned the safety of those attending Sunday service so for the moment we have decided that the outside door will be locked at 10.15 am. Anybody arriving after that time is requested to ring the bell at the Vestry door from the car park to gain access.

Tea and coffee will be served after the service this morning and you are warmly invited to stay for a cuppa and a chat.

And, finally, an announcement about Baby Basics Liverpool


Baby Basics Liverpool

Each year at Allerton URC we have had a tremendous response when collecting for Food Banks. Now the church is asking for your support in donating to this organisation.

Baby Basics Liverpool is a volunteer-powered baby bank supporting infants and parents experiencing hardship.

Working closely with health professionals and other agencies, they provide new and excellent quality preloved items for infants whose families are struggling to cope with the financial and practical challenges of caring for a baby. 

There are many ways in which we can donate:

·         Donating pre-loved items; they are desperate for Moses baskets, blankets and 0-3 months clothing.

·         New items, such as toiletries for baby; nappies; baby wipes etc.

·         Finally, we can donate money.

So how can you help?

We hope to run this project until Harvest Festival in September/ October so, in the meantime:

Share this information with families and friends – help spread the word

Donate items that are listed by bringing them to church

And, for all you knitters/crocheters out there, please get knitting or crocheting.

Ongoing Notices

We like to use the computer, projector and screen for our services here at Allerton. There is quite a bit of preparation that goes into having hymns and readings on the screen and we would like to spread the workload as best we can. If you or a member of your family are familiar with Microsoft PowerPoint and can spare a couple of hours once a month to assist with the setting up of a PowerPoint presentation, we would like to hear from you. Please speak to Ruth Winterburn or Charles Lasham.
