What's New(s)?

Communication within the churches and to the wider community is important, and two publications serve to do this.

Weekly Newssheet 
The Newssheet has run for many years as a way for the Rector, Committees and individual parishioners to tell everyone else any news, information, etc. It is an A4 sheet folded to A5 size produced weekly for each Sunday. The newssheet generally has the following format:

The front always gives the services for the current Sunday and the following Sunday for both Churches. It includes the normal services and also Baptisms, Weddings and Funerals. It gives also the Readings and the Collect for the current Sunday.

Inside (pages 2- 3 and onto page 4) shows the immediate diary for the next 3-4 weeks and any advance notices of meetings, events, etc. including any notes of explanation followed by general notices and special messages (of appreciation, etc.)

The back contains concerns for prayer, especially requests for prayer for the bereaved; those preparing for marriage; parents and Godparents of those to be baptised and for friends or family who have special needs, e.g. ill-health. When space allows we enjoy sharing someone’s choice of prayer, verse or hymn.

Contributions are put in a folder at the rear of St Martin’s church by 11am on the Thursday preceding the Sunday service, or may be sent by email before Friday lunchtime or phoned to the editor by the deadline.

Knebworth Parish News
The monthly “Parish News” has been published for a number of years now. It is intended to provide local news for the entire village.

On average it carries about 16 pages of information, reports and news from the Parish and District Councils, Societies, Clubs and our local Police. Individual concerns are also expressed within these pages by readers. The magazine also includes news from all the churches; including their services and an address from each church leader.

The Parish News format has been recently updated to give a more contemporary feel and each issue sports a changing coloured front and back cover, with advertisements interleaved between the newssheets. The advertisements help to keep the cost of the Parish News down and include “small ads” for a variety of services and “for sale” notices. This magazine is a valuable resource and excellent value for money at only 50p per issue or £5.50 for a year’s subscription.  A small group of volunteers act as editors on a rotational basis.
