HIDDEN BOOKS
There is a Bible book hidden in each clue: the letters of the book are in anagram form in the capital letters. To help you, the books are in Bible order.
Cleaning:
We have been looking for a new cleaner to take over from Sam Godley. We thought we had it all sorted, but the new person has had to withdraw. So do you know of anyone who would be interested in the work? It involves 2 hours a week.

if you smile, it returns the greeting.” -William Makepeace Thackeray
God’s Hands
This was on a card given to Ruth by a Christian magician:
Safe in the arms of Jesus
When Jesus takes your hand He holds you tight.
When Jesus holds you tight He leads you through life.
When Jesus leads you through life He brings you safely home.
Food Bank:
Thanks to Anne who took our Harvest non-perishables to the Food Bank; and to everyone who made a donation for fresh produce – the cash total was £66.
