The Parish Fete is back again, this year on Saturday, June 13th, at St George’s, 11am-3pm.

There are lots of stalls – tombolas, the raffle, games, jigsaws, toys, tea and cakes, the barbecue, the bar, craft, community stalls and much more – and a pet show, plus, new for this year, ‘Meet the Minibeasts’, and the ‘Pony Pals’ interactive experience between 11am and 1pm. There will be a maypole, entertainment, music and a children’s area.

Please do come and join us for a great fun day which also raises money for the parish.

Ascension Day

Leave a comment

Ascension Day falls on Thursday, May 14th this year and, as is our custom, we will be celebrating with a barbecue at St George’s Church, followed by a communion service.

Ascension Day takes place 40 days after Easter and tells the story of Jesus ascending to heaven following his resurrection and appearances to his disciples. It is a linking moment between Easter and Pentecost because, just before he ascended, Jesus promised that the Holy Spirit would come upon them (see Luke 24 v: 49-51 and Acts 1 v: 8-9).

Join us at St George’s at 6pm for the barbecue, followed by a short communion service at 7.30pm. Bring your own meat/vegetarian alternative and drinks. Some salad and bread will be provided. All ages welcome.
