HARVEST SERVICE will be held on Sunday 10 October at 10.30 am when we will be delighted to welcome Toby Thorns to preach on the care and protection of our planet. Church will be decorated by the Flower Guild (any new volunteers will be warmly welcomed) and donations of food will be placed on the alter. None perishables are practical but any fresh produce will celebrate the gardeners’ delight!
A SERVICE FOR ALL SOULS will be held at the beginning of next month, Sunday 7 November at 10.30 am when Canon Keith will lead. Words and music will provide a sacred time and space for prayer and reflection and lighted candles will be placed on the altar.

Welcome back to the parish magazine. It feels so good to be worshiping together once again and to be preparing for a Hanbury couple’s wedding with 30 guests, only one week away from the time of writing. Steve and the band in the tower will be practicing a ring of three instead of their usual eight and the grounds are looking lovely as the bluebells fade.
