CHRISTMAS services in the parish church: On Christmas Eve there will be a crib service, particularly for young children, at 5.30pm. On Christmas Day there will be Eucharist with carols at 10am. Boxing Day there will be a short service with carols at 10am in the Mission Church.
METHODIST service: Christmas Day service will be at 9.30am, led by Chris Evans.
SILCHESTER Village Hall: Is now a non-smoking area. The signs are up - will hirers please note. There are bins outside in the porch for the stubs. The new floodlighting should also now be in place.
OUR cattle: Sadly, we report the death of one of the cattle from the common - an excess of acorns was the culprit!
SPONSORED walk: This seems a long time ago now, but I hear that £243 was raised by Silchester walkers and bikers. As half of this goes to church funds, well done to all.
KING Arthur: The Players are busily rehearsing for their panto, An Adventure in Camelot, which takes place on January 21, 22, 28 and 29, in the village hall.
Tickets are on sale now at £6, £4 concessions, by calling 0118 9815600.
