Deanery News

The next Deanery Synod will be on Tuesday, 5^th February, 2013, at 7.30pm at St. Edmund’s Church. Shipston. We will be looking at the ways in which churches across the Deanery are Transforming their Communities, and also hopefully receive a report of the General Synod in November.

Lent begins a little earlier this year than last: Shrove Tuesday is 12^th February, and Ash Wednesday is 13^th February. Our Lent Series of Services across the Deanery will therefore begin the week after. This year we are following the York Course ‘Glimpses of God’. The booklet that accompanies it was written by David Winter: not only do we have copies of the booklet available (£3.99) for those who would like to use it in house groups, David Winter himself is coming to give the opening address. Dates and places are as follows: all services are on Tuesdays at 7.30pm

February 19^th- Tysoe
The God who hears our cry

Feburary 26^th- Halford
The shepherd who guards and guides his people

March 5^th - Sutton-u-Brailes
The Son, who is the Way, the Truth and the Life.

March 12^th - Burmington
The God who shares our pain

March 19^th - Idlicote
The God who calms our fears.

March 26^th - Ilmington
Deanery Eucharist for Holy Week

May we all rejoice in the gift of this New Year.

Blessing, Jill
