Highlights of the past year

Harvest

This year we celebrated God`s goodness to us on Sunday 2nd October. Produce donated was given to the Green Hut project to help people who are lonely or homeless. The money from the collection went to the caring work of Salvation Army in Highworth.

Rogation Sunday.   29th May 10 am    Traditionally a service of prayers for a good harvest to come- now a celebration of farming with the building decorated with old farm tools and even a tractor in the churchyard 

Weddings

 Twelve this year- It has been good to welcome so many couples who have joined us regularly in the months before their ceremony.

.

We pray for a fulfilling married life for all.

 

Saturday 20 th August

 People came in old clothes bringing cloths, dusters,spades and shears (old tooth brushes are good for rubbing oil into the wood), worked for an hour or two and stayed on for a BBQ lunch.

   Talk to Roger any time you are prepared to volunteer there is always something to do

The life of St Leonard was celebrated on Sunday  6th November during the service at 9.30am.. He dedicated his life to helping others and was allowed to give comfort and practical help to prisoners who were often treated very badly in mediaeval europe.
