LENT LUNCH
Our Lent Lunch was very well attended, and everyone enjoyed some hearty soups, homemade bread and delicious cheeses. We are planning to hold more lunches during the year and hope you can join us.
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.
PRAYER BOARD
We now have a lovely new prayer board in church, kindly made and donated by our parishioner Sheila Wilson in memory of her husband Tom. The board is located at the back of the church next to the food bank table. If you have anyone that you would like us to pray for, please pop in and add their name, along with your message to the board and we will include them in our prayers.
CRAFTY CHURCH
Crafty Church takes place on the 4th Sunday of the month. The next three sessions will be on 23rd June, 28th July and 25th August from 2.30 pm to 4.00 pm. This is for the whole benefice and beyond – taking place in Tingewick Church because we have lots of space, lots and 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 dates for the next three months are 12th June, 10th July and 14th August.
All services can be found in the calendar here.
CHURCH OPENING
Our lovely church is currently open daily 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.
