On Sunday 11 May, the fifth and final stage of the Women’s Tour of Britain Cycle Race will be visiting Suffolk. The race is due to pass through Babergh District, visiting the market towns of Hadleigh, Sudbury, Long Melford and Lavenham, to arrive for the finish line on Angel Hill, Bury St. Edmunds.
Please be aware that the race is likely to cause some disruption on our road network in and around Sudbury between the hours of 10am to 12pm on Sunday 11 May. Sudbury council advise that delays will be possible, so we suggest that you give yourselves a little extra time to accommodate for this.
Watch this space for further updates.

Are you in a HOME group? Maybe you are new to the church or never quite got around to joining a midweek pastoral group.
On Sunday 11 May we are giving everyone in the church the opportunity to sign up to a HOME group and start the summer term with the fresh opportunity to go deeper with God and one another.
These small groups are great places for making friends in a relaxed and safe environment. We’ll also help you you find an evening and location to suits you best.
For more information, please contact the church office.

The Archbishop of Wales has urged the UK government to tackle a national hunger crisis as figures show a big rise in numbers using foodbanks.
The Trussell Trust said it had given emergency food aid to nearly 80,000 people in Wales in the last 12 months, more than double the 2012-13 figure.
Archbishop Barry Morgan said it was “incredible” for this to happen in such a “prosperous country”.
More than 500 clergy signed a letter as part of the End Hunger Fast campaign.
Tony Graham, Wales manager for the Trussell Trust foodbank network, said it had seen a 120% rise is usage.

Worth watching the Prime Minister’s Easter message as he mentions, in particular, Alpha, as well as the plight of the persecuted church.

We are fast approaching the end of Lent. If you have given up chocolate you are probably in the grips of the cravings, looking forward to sinking your teeth into an Easter egg.
What ever you have decided to give up during Lent you will probably find that your purse or wallet is a little heavier. With that extra spare change you saved by not buying that sneaky afternoon chocolate bar or the box of chocolates to go with your Saturday night film, have you thought about filling either an old supermarket plastic bag or one of our Storehouse food bank bags’ with some food for a family or individual in crisis in and around Sudbury?
We will soon be collecting the bags ready for the Storehouse team to process and hand out at our Tuesday and Friday drop-ins. If you haven’t already there is still time to pick up your Storehouse brown food bag, available on a Sunday morning at our service. Alternatively yourself, family and friends can fill an old shopping bag and take to one of your nearest collection points (Click here for list of collection points). Of course, there is no limited to bags that can be filled!
If you’re not part of Vineyard and either a Collection Point or friend, you can download an A4 display poster, along with a PPT notice slide below, to help promote the idea to your church.
If we can help further, drop us a line.
Thank you.
Much love,
The Storehouse Team
