Mothering Sunday, also known as Mothers' Day, is celebrated on the fourth Sunday in Lent. Traditionally, it is a day on which people visit the church they were baptised in and on which they honour their mother.
We invite you to come along to All Saints Church, Siddington for a service of music, prayers and readings to celebrate mothers everywhere. It will be led by members of the congregation.

Central to worship in our church is the celebration of the Holy Eucharist, also called the Holy Communion, or the Lord's Supper. In this offering of prayer and praise, the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ are remembered and celebrated.

You are welcome to come and join us for coffee and company on the second Wednesday of each month in the Parish Hall.
There will be hot drinks, cakes, biscuits and chat in warm surroundings.
Free of charge.

At this service with music, prayers and readings, we remember and celebrate the triumphant procession of Christ into Jerusalem.

We will hold a candlelit service commemorating Jesus' last supper. The service is the beginning of three days following the story of Jesus' final three days. This recalls Jesus' time in the garden of Gethsemane, and we are invited to consider with Jesus how we choose to live our lives.
This is a joint service for all the Rural Daneside Churches and all are welcome to come.

On Good Friday we remember the day Jesus willingly suffered and died by crucifixion as the ultimate sacrifice for our sins.

This year, there will be the one service for all Rural Daneside Churches.

Easter is the most important festival in the Christian calendar. It celebrates Jesus rising from the dead, three days after he was executed. Christians believe that, through his resurrection, Jesus overcame death and sin. This offers people the promise of eternal life if they follow his teachings.
You are invited to come to this joyous communion service on Easter Sunday to celebrate Jesus rising from death to move among us again.

For this year's spring event, the committee has decided to try something different for the village - A Cheshire Rural Touring Arts (CRTA) event.
The association aims to represent a diverse programme of high-quality arts entertainment for all tastes and ages, including live theatre, literature, music and dance, in Cheshire's rural venues.
They have been fortunate enough to secure a booking for Robin Ince, who will, no doubt, be well-known to many of you.
Robin Ince, award-winning broadcaster and comedian, is best-known as the co-presenter of the multi-award-winning Radio 4 science show "The Infinite Monkey Cage". He recently wrote and presented "Writing the Universe", and a four-part solo stand-up series "Reality Tunnel". He has performed across the world from Reykjavic to Dunedin, LA to Sophia and won many awards for his shows including Time Out's outstanding achievement in comedy award. His books include "I'm a joke and so are you", "Bibliomaniac", "The Importance of Being Interested". In 2022, he won the Author of the Year from the Bookseller Association. His next book is about neurodivergence - "Normally Weird ... Weirdly Normal", followed by his first collection of poetry, "Ice cream for a Broken Tooth".
For over thirty years, Robin has entertained thousands in person and on air. But underneath the surface, a whirlwind was at play - a struggle with sadness, concentration, self-doubt and near-constant anxiety. But then he discovered he had all the hallmarks of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and his stumbling blocks became stepping stones.
His show is entitled "The Universe and Neurodiverse" and seeks to look at things a bit differently. What is being a bit weird is actually normal? What if sharing our internal struggles isn't a sign of weakness, but strength?
This promises to be an extremely entertaining evening, so do put the date in your diary and more details about tickets will follow.

This is a service of prayers, thanksgiving and hymn-singing, welcoming all members of the community, whatever their age. It may sometimes be led by members of the congregation.

If you don't have an animal to bring, have you got a favourite soft toy animal? We'd like to see them too. Bring your pet (or favourite soft toy) along to this very popular, outdoor service that has become a major part of Siddington life over the years.

If you don't have an animal, just bring yourselves!

Our annual village fete will take place on the school field at Marton. Here’s hoping for a dry one!

A major part of life at All Saints is Redesmere Fete, which attracts hundreds of people.
One of the best known and picturesque village events in the region, the fete features the crowning of the Water Lily Queen, so called because she is rowed across Redesmere Lake which was at one time covered by water lilies.
The Queen is then crowned by the King of Redesmere on the lake shore before the start of a traditional family-oriented fete at the Village Hall with attractions for all the family. The festivities continue into the evening.
