This Sunday we will celebrate All Saints Day (one day in advance!) at our 10am Harvest Parish Communion in St Mary’s Easton.
Our visiting celebrant, Revd Warwick Heathcote (a retired Anglican clergyman, originally from South Africa) will preach on the lectionary readings appointed for All Saints Day. And Gerry Stacey, our Licensed Lay Minster, will lead the intercessions—which will include his reading out the names of any loved ones that parishioners would like to be held in remembrance by us as a gathered congregation.
If you would like to submit a name, please contact Beccy Clark on admin@itchenvalleychurches.org. But, if you forget, don’t worry, since names submitted ‘at the door’ will also be added to the list on the day.
