BOLDRE PCC

The PCC met on 14^th March in St. Nicholas Chapel.  The Accounts, Annual Report and Agenda for the Annual Parish Meetings were agreed, and Jackie Phillips was confirmed as the Child Protection Officer for the parish. 

Because of resignations due to ill health, we shall need at least three new PCC members for next year. 

The new hymn books are in use, and the display stand for the bound Book of Remembrance has been installed. Its dedication will take place shortly. 

The Good Friday arrangements for the four parishes in the group were studied. 

Repairs to the roof and lightning conductor at St. John's have been made, and the interior painting will be completed when warmer weather has allowed the south wall to dry out. 

The Sunday Club has been relaunched and, to mark the 400^th anniversary of the King James translation of the Bible, the use of this version throughout June will be considered. 

The next event for Churches Together will be Stations of the Cross at St. Anne's in Brockenhurst on Wednesday, 20^th April. 

It is intended to prune heavily the holly bush outside St. John's, to reshape it after it was mutilated by vandals. 

The Annual Parish Meetings will take place on Monday, 18^th April, at Boldre War Memorial Hall and dates for PCC meetings for the coming year will be decided thereafter.
