October News from St. Margaret's Church, Iver Heath. Harvest Festival 2019 This month we celebrate our Harvest Thanksgiving on Sunday October 6th . Gifts will be delivered to the Slough Foodbank which we regularly support. After the Sung Eucharist at 10.30 a.m. there is a ‘Bring & Share' lunch at 12 noon, which will include Indian food from the Indian members of our congregation (yum!). As we give thanks for God's provision for us, let us pray that human greed, war, and natural disasters may diminish so that the bountiful goodness of the earth may be shared by all people.
Change of time for Sunday Sung Eucharist. Our Sung Eucharist on Sundays now begins at 10.30 a.m. each week. This is for a trial period for the new time, until the end of the year. Each Sunday except September the 8th, there are Children's ministries in the Church Centre during the Eucharist, the children returning for the Holy Communion.

A list of currently needed items is posted on the noticeboard in the Church annexe and we welcome your donations. Thank you for your gifts! Giving to the poor is at the heart of the Christian gospel.
