Easter Week Meditations and Service

You are most welcome to join us in an Easter Meditation on Wednesday, Maundy Thursday and Good Friday of this week, Holy Week, at St Petrock’s Church. Starting at 9.30am each morning, the Meditation will last for approximately 20 minutes and will be followed by a light breakfast offering. If you have not previously experienced a gentle reflective Meditation, this is a wonderful opportunity to be guided by Rev Nicola Butt.

Our Easter Sunday Communion service will be at the usual time of 11.00am with Rev Nicola. Come and participate in one of the principal festivals of the Christian Church, commemorating the Resurrection.

Lent Lunch – Thursday 10th at 12.00 St Petrock’s

Do please join us for a lunch at 12 noon in the church offering a variety of home made soups, and with rolls and butter, to eat together. Just turn up and there is no charge. Any voluntary donations given will be the final call in our appeal to help the Emergency Appeal for Sudan. We hope to see you there! Marion and Kate

Churchyard Clearing

For anyone able to give a hand with maintaining our lovely village churchyard we meet as usual this Saturday, 5th April, (always the first Saturday of the month), between 10am and 12 noon. Any time you can give to help is really appreciated, simply bring gardening gloves, any tools you need, and we meet and decide on the most important needs of the day. It’s a very friendly and peaceful morning when you can work in solitary or in small groups and we can together achieve a lot in a short space of time. You don’t need to worry about the garden waste as we dispose of that afterwards. Thank you to all who help, whenever they can. Marion and Kate.

Thank you Timberscombe!

The Starters and Puddings evening last Saturday in the Village Hall was a great success. We have raised £1041.40 which is a tremendously successful fundraiser to support our village church and keep it open, in good order and available to everyone. Thank you all for your support on the evening and we hope that everyone had a good time.

The hard work of all our volunteers who prepared for the evening, cooked a delicious range of courses, offered wonderful raffle prizes, washed up and moved upteen tables and chairs, along with general enthusiasm and commitment, made this a real success of which we can all be proud. Thanks also go to Minnie Hates the Hoover who played a terrific range of songs for the enjoyment of everybody there. Well done everyone who helped in any way!
