BOLDRE PCC
The PCC met on 8th July in St. Nicholas Chapel.
Plans for a new path and for the siting of new benches in the churchyard have been submitted to the Diocese.
It was agreed to display at the entrance to the churchyard the diocesan requirements regarding gravestones and memorials, and also to ensure all the local stonemasons are aware of them, so that bereaved families know what is or is not permitted.
Three baptisms take place on 11th July in St. John's and two candidates will be confirmed on 20th July in Brockenhurst.
It is hoped to arrange a pet service at around the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi.
The quinquennial inspection of the church will take place on 3rd August, and repairs to the church organ were agreed.
A generous legacy to be devoted to the upkeep of the church and churchyard is awaited.
The Parish Share for 2010 has been agreed with the Deanery, and we have been warned to expect a 2.75% increase in 2011.
The wooden flooring in St. Nicholas is to be resealed, and Mr. and Mrs. Norris have generously undertaken to pay for repairs to damaged fencing bordering the recreation ground.
The next PCC meeting will be on Thursday, 9th September.
