Deanery Matters

The next Deanery Synod is on February 2nd (note this is a change of date) at St. Edmund’s, Shipston. The evening will begin with a ‘bring and share’ supper at 7.00pm, followed by a short Eucharist for Candlemas at 7.30 p.m. (celebrant David Thurburn-Huelin) before the business of the Synod. We will be welcoming Revd. Canon Christopher Lamb as our main speaker, who will be talking about ‘Living under Occupation in Jerusalem’.

Lent Services

Once again we look forward to welcoming everyone to our series of Lent services, all on Tuesday evenings. This year we will start at 7.30 p.m. The theme this year is ‘The Christian Difference’, and venues will be:

February 23rd - Shipston - A love that shows
March 2nd - Cherington - An allegiance that shows
March 9th - Halford - A joy that shows
March 16th - Sutton-under-Brailes - A concern that shows
March 23rd - Stretton-on-Fosse - A faith that shows
March 30th - Tysoe - Eucharist of Holy Week,
with Bishop Christopher

The series is based upon the book ‘Spot the Difference’, by Nick Fawcett, published by Kevin Mayhew. Copies cost £6.99 from Christian bookshops or, hopefully, Robinson Goss.
