Remembrance Sunday

For the first time in many years there was rain on Remembrance Sunday. This meant the procession from St Paul’s with the St Paul’s Choir and St Joseph’s Choir to the Sale War Memorial had to be done with umbrellas and outside coats instead of the usual robes. Revd Becky and Father Stephen led the service at the Town Hall steps and there was the usual large attendance.

The photos below were taken during the morning.

Harvest at St Paul’s

The Harvest at St Paul’s was an All-age service with the Springfield School Choir performing special Harvest songs.The many harvest gifts that were brought to the service will be donated to the Mustard Tree and Trafford South Foodbank charities. During the service the Vicar detailed the problems being faced in Sri Lanka in the tea plantations there which she has personal knowledge of during her time in Sri Lanka. Collections were made during and after the service for the USPG Sri Lankan appeal.

The photos below show the displays both inside and outside Church.

Teddy Bear Parachute Jump – Update

Taken from St Paul’s Facebook page the text, photos and video below give a flavour of the Teddy Bear Parachute Jump on Saturday July 29th.

So a few of our teddy’s ended up on the roof but we got the professionals in.
We also had teddy bears from Sale Guides and Sale Central Cubs Parker pack, lovely to see Brown Owl and Akela joining in the fun.

The event is featured in a YouTube video as part of the Wicked Acorn series and can be found at the link below. It may make you dizzy at times. (also we are happy to report that the stranded teddy has been retrieved.
