Come and join us around the firepit in the woodland of St Mary’s for a song, a short bible reading, and activities that make the most of our woodland setting. As usual there will be lots of marshmallows and hot chocolate! (Mossy Church is now on the 2nd Saturday of the month only).

All Together Morning Worship will be at 10am and Holy Communion at 6pm. What does ‘Merciful Living’ mean to you? At the 10am All Together service we will be exploring the theme of Mercy through a variety of activities around the building and woodland and through the sharing of thoughts and prayers. The evening service will be based on the same readings and include the sharing of Holy Communion. All are welcome.

All Together Communion will take place at 10am this Sunday. David Newman will be with us as we think about the Trinity and the words we say in the Grace. This is an All Together service where we learn and worship as a whole congregation. Everyone is welcome. Please remember there is NO 6PM SERVICE at St Mary’s this Sunday. Instead, please come along to the Deanery Confirmation Service at St Peter and St
Paul’s Church, Church St, Hathern, at 6pm.

This group warmly invites anyone who would welcome some company whether they live alone or not. It is a lovely opportunity to meet together to share lunch and chat.

We look forward to seeing you all there.
