Well, that was strange…

For a while, if you clicked on the link on Facebook to get to this week’s notices, you were transported to a dodgy Russian property site, before being redirected to a safe place, i.e. Google…
The issue has now been resolved. Here’s what our favourite geek had to say about it:

Sorry everyone, the server was hacked and some nasty person has made your browser think that the halewood notices are located on a dodgy .ru domain name. To fix that, you need to clear your browser’s cache, or wait till the cache expires by itself. Info here, takes about 30 seconds.

Hopefully, you can access this week’s notices, without buying timeshare in Russia, by clicking here.

If you have problems with this, please let us know.

Apologies for the inconvenience.

Child Friendly Church

As you may know, we have held the Diocesan ‘Child Friendly Church’ award since 2006. Our status is due to be reviewed, so we are looking at the action plan for our work with children and young people. Halewood Church Council has set up a group that will meet on the evening of Tuesday 8th May to consider this. If you would like to be involved with this, or if you have any observations that you would like the group to consider, please contact either Alan Jewell or Gill Dover.

Please note that the St Nicholas’ Centre will be closed on Thursday 3rd May as it is being used as a Polling Station. This means there will be no Coffee Shop or Vestry on that day.

Thanks to everyone who attended last night’s Annual Meeting, and especially to those who were elected and appointed to various posts.
Unfortunately, we were not able to consider the accounts, so that will require an extra meeting, probably on 28th May, the same night as the next HCC meeting.
We formally adopted the new constitution which we were required to do in order to apply for registered charity status. So, welcome to the new world!
