Spiritually
This is the name of the group we have been calling The Older People’s Group! We hope you like the name as much as we do and will consider coming to join us on Friday once a month at 12 noon. We begin with a sandwich and cake lunch, followed by some activity, currently we are thinking about what spirituality means in our lives.
Dates of meetings are usually the 2nd Friday of the month but in July it will be the 3rd Friday as both leaders are away:
July 15th
August no meeting planned but the group may like to meet somewhere for coffee
September 9th
October 14th
November 11th
December 9th
Please remember to sign up each month at the latest by the Sunday before the meeting as I need to order the food at the start of the week. The sheet for signing is on the table in the vestibule and you will need to pay me £6 for your lunch. I hope you will come and join this lively group of OWLS. Beryl Austoni.
Michael Biggins Concert
Saturday 25th June 2022
Michael is an award winning pianist and accordionist from Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, and the first ever pianist to win the coveted BBC Radio Scotland Young Traditional Musician of the Year award. He will be joined on stage by Scott Turnbull on guitar and Callum Younger on percussion, as they perform an enjoyable and refreshing programme of Scottish Folk Music. A licensed bar will be available from 7pm, and during the interval.
MU July meeting Tuesday 19th July 2.30pm
So that we have some music to accompany our Strawberry Tea in July please let me have some suggestions - Show songs, solo pieces, jazz, orchestral excerpts, choral etc. Everything considered! I will then put them into a pre- recorded playlist. Many thanks. Carole Lax
A message from Audrey Searle
Dear Friends of St. Mary’s, Thank you for all your kind wishes, cards and prayers. After 4 weeks in the RVI I am now home to continue my recovery. I look forward to seeing everyone again in the - hopefully - not too distant future. With love, Audrey Searle
Live Stream Services
There is currently only one camera in operation for live stream services. Normal service will resume as soon as possible.
Reminder: St Mary's 100 Club 2022/23 Thank you to everyone who has joined (or rejoined) the 100 Club this week. Last year, the 100 Club raised £1370 for church funds which went mainly towards the costs of cleaning the church hall. It really does help, and St Mary’s will be delighted if you will join or re join the scheme. For £25 a year you are entered into twelve monthly draws with the chance of winning £50, £30 and £20 or in December £100, £50 or £30. To save disappointment perhaps it is better to consider it a donation and enjoy the surprise if you win. All you need to do is transfer £25 using online banking to St Marys 100 Club, Sort Code 20-62-09 Account No. 53160653. Alternatively, drop off a cheque made payable to St Marys 100 Club or even cash. Please post or deliver either to me at 61 Brierdene Crescent, Whitley Bay, NE26 4AD or to church (should it be required the letter box is in the north door). The church office can also take card payments during office hours, 9.30am - 12.30pm weekdays. I would appreciate if existing members could send me an email or text confirming payment. If you are a new member, I will need your name and address. A contact email address or phone number would be useful too so that I can confirm receipt and deliver your winnings to your home! On a happy note, congratulations to our June winners!

REMINDER: Visits to parishioners who are no longer able to attend Church With the easing of visitor restrictions in some of the local care homes a number of us are now able to visit residents who used to attend St Mary’s, and also take them communion. If any of you would like to visit to chat with anyone please speak with me and I can give you details. Beryl Austoni (Anna Chaplain).
REMINDER: Trinity Choice The choir would like to invite you to choose your favourite hymns to sing during Trinity season. Just sign up on the sheet and Mike and Penny will place them in appropriate services.
