St. Mary’s Church

Our Harvest Festival at the beginning of October was the first service at St Mary’s for six months. Thanks to all who cleaned and decorated the church and donated produce. We had a small congregation for a socially distanced service, with music – Becky played harvest hymns at the beginning and end, and Geoff sang solo.

We are hoping to hold a service in November and will pass the word around when we know. The church is open on Wednesdays and Sundays for anyone to go in for some peaceful reflection. Please sign in and observe our Covid-19 precautions.

Also, please keep Liz and her family in your prayers.

Owing to the current situation with Covid-19, we are unable to run the Christmas bingo this year. We hope to be able to resume for Easter 2021.

In the meantime, stay safe and enjoy the festive season. Here’s to a healthier New Year.

The Summer

Now gone, it was one with a mix of lovely weather, storms and rain. Sadly, no big Village Green event other than the Sunday village lunch – which was fun, as always, and a release from lockdown. Hopefully, we can keep our village free from Covid and enjoy life to the full.

As autumn approaches the colours begin to appear and the cows savour their last days outside before winter life indoors.
