STOP PRESS

 

This is the last edition of the Clarion

Unless there is an outcry over its demise.

 

The Clarion was discussed at the AGM of Churches Together because we needed someone else to edit the newssheet. The current editor reported that, while a number of people received the Clarion and used it in their churches there was only one church which regularly contributed. The rest of the items are from what the editor collected elsewhere. As the aim of the Clarion was to share good news stories, information and adverts from the churches of Carlisle the committee felt the aim was not being achieved. In the light of this the decision to cease publication was taken.

 

If you feel that the Clarion is still a useful tool then please inform us and tell us which church you represent. Please email us at the above email address. If you do this it also needs a commitment from your church to send information in which it wants publicised through the Clarion. This would need to be a regular commitment.

 

The editor is going on Sabbatical for May to beginning of August so if there is a demand the next edition will be published in August to cover September. Closing date for items will be 10 August.

 

Wed.15           7.30 pm Healing Service.
