8am Harvest Service and Holy Communion

On Sunday 1st October, the 8am Communion Service, at St Ouen’s Parish Church, will be celebrating Harvest. We will be exploring the Parable of the Mustard Seed.

After the service, the 8am congregation will be having their monthly breakfast together, and warmly invite anyone from this service to join them afterwards.

Once again we will be collecting produce to gift to the work of “Grace Trust Jersey” and the “Friends of Ecce Homo Trust” to go out to Romania. The most useful produce to bring are items that can keep for a long time, ideally tinned vegetables, meat, tuna, fruit, rice puddings, custard, pasta sauces and curries. Packet items that are helpful include dried pasta, rice, sugar, salt, cereals, porridge, long-life milk, cooking oil, biscuits and cakes. Please check that all items are within their ‘best before’ dates as we give with generous and grateful hearts.

Finally, thank you to those who have kindly created the beautiful floral arrangements and harvest displays in church.
