Funeral service for Arthur Mansfield
This will take place on Friday, 4 July at 2pm at Brighton Road Baptist Church. Anyone who knew Arthur is welcome to attend.
The service will be followed by refreshments (drinks and cake) at the church. A private cremation will take place later. There is no dress code. Feel free to wear whatever colour and style of clothing you feel most comfortable in.
For the funeral service we request family flowers only please. If you wish to make a donation in memory of Arthur you can do so online at arthurmansfield.muchloved.com or send to Dandelion Farewells, Wisborough Green, West Sussex RH14 0DY. Donations received will go to the charities Save the Children and Shelter.
AV Team Vacancy
We have a vacancy for someone to help us prepare the projection for Sunday services (as part of the AV team). You'd be part of a team of 3 (Geoff Smith and Bryan Jupe being the others) so you would be doing it every 3 weeks. You'd need to be available on Thursdays during the day to produce the material and on Fridays to do any updates and to load and test the service at BRBC. Full training in our software will be given. If you're interested then please see Geoff Smith.
