EASTER
The church looked splendid over the Easter period with the beautiful floral displays and imaginative Easter Gardens. These were produced by both adults and children, and we had a very varied and interesting mix. Thank you to everyone whose hard work made the church look so lovely for this special time of year.
The Easter egg hunt and craft session were enjoyed by lots of children, with clues being hidden around the churchyard and chocolate eggs received as a reward for everyone’s efforts. The services were very well attended, and it was lovely to see the church so full of worshippers. We hope many more of you will be able to join us for some of our services throughout the year.
LENT LUNCH
We held our Lent Lunch, which was very well attended, and everyone enjoyed some hearty soups, homemade bread and various cheeses. Thank you to everyone who provided the delicious spread.
HARVEST SUPPER
On Saturday 19th September we will be holding our Harvest Supper in the Village Hall. At a cost of £12.50 per head there will be a choice of Lasagne and salad or Cottage Pie and green beans, followed by home-made desserts. There will also be a bar available, serving beer, wine and soft drinks. Doors will open from 6pm, with the supper being served at 7pm. We hope you can join us for this lovely social occasion. Tickets will be available from the Café and the Tingewick Arms, or by calling Lorna on 07548 239230.
CRAFTY CHURCH
Crafty Church takes place on the 4th Sunday of the month. The next two sessions will be on 28th June and 26th July from 2.30pm to 4.00pm. There will be no Crafty Church in August. This is for the whole benefice and beyond – taking place in Tingewick Church because we have lots of space, lots of craft supplies, a toilet and a little kitchen – perfect! We have a monthly theme, but this is just a suggestion. You can make other things too. If you have ideas, please come and share them.
MIDWEEK SPOKEN HOLY COMMUNION
Our midweek Communion service takes place on the 2nd Wednesday of every month at 10am. The upcoming dates are 10th June, 8th July and 12th August.
CHURCH OPENING
Our lovely church is now open from 10am to 4pm, for quiet reflection and private prayer, or just for a wander around the church and churchyard.
FOOD BANK
The kindness of villagers continues to amaze us. Our boxes are still in the church porch and all donations of non-perishable goods are always extremely welcome. Please help us to help those around us who rely on this valuable resource. Every donation really does help local families.
