Mr Mac
At last, 2022 is well under way and let us hope for a better year and the end of the pandemic. Technology has, as always, moved along in leaps and bounds over the last 12 months and I am sure it will do so this year as well. I am pleased to report that many over 55s are embracing more and more new technology. Not just the 60 and 70 year olds, I have clients in their 80s and even some in their 90s! My advice to everyone is do not let the device control you, you control the device. Use them for what you need and be comfortable with what you are using.

As more and more of you are asking me for advice when choosing something new, I can tell you that do not always need to buy the latest iPhone, iPad, Mac computer or Windows laptop when you decide to change your device. Apple and Amazon offer refurbished, in most cases as good as new, for much less than the price of a new model and with a 12 month warranty. I can help to advise on the best one for your needs. Please call me to book an appointment 07392 552 592.
Finally, this month if you are fed up with Alexa and would prefer something with a much better sound quality, try the Apple Home Pod Mini. It sounds so much better than the Echo Dot Alexa speaker. I used to be very happy with my Bose mini speaker until I changed for these. You can install them in different rooms and connect to any Apple device wirelessly. They are just £89 each and available in various colours.

The Arle Valley Benefice - Service Survey
The Arle Valley Benefice is the name of the group of 4 church parishes for New Alresford, Old Alresford, Bighton and Ovington. The Rector has responsibility for all services of worship in these 4 parishes. When you read this we will have already begun a period of consultation within our communities to ascertain the types, times and frequency of church services that the community would like to have in our churches.
The Rector cannot be in more than one church at a time, and only a priest can preside at communion services. We are however blessed with 2 focal ministers at Bighton and Old Alresford who can take services that are non-Eucharistic. We also have a licensed lay minister and lay worship leaders with similar permissions to take non Eucharistic services across the Benefice. We are actively seeking the views of all in our communities and would love to hear your views. Please contact us directly through your local church, through our website, Facebook page or through the benefice office at St Johns’. We also have an online anonymous survey that you can complete the link is below and also on our website, Facebook page or from the Benefice office.
We want to listen and discern before we make any decisions about our service rota, we know that we won’t please everybody, but we would love to be able to please as many people as possible.
Please give us your views. https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/ XJ7HCPJ - And please contact the Rector Reverend Heather Brearey with any questions, comments or concerns that you have. arlevalleyrector@gmail.com
