Some friends and I are going to walk the English route to Santiago de Compostela and then onwards to Finisterre and Muxia, about 150 miles in total. I am asking if you will help me to raise money by sponsoring me.The money will be used towards the cost of the repair to floor at St Michaels and All Angels, Eaton Hasting. The floor at St Michaels is collapsing due to rot.You can contribute online at https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/caminowalking?utm_term=n6ZQYAqqmOr contribute directly.Thank you, Jan
Reverend Maureen Turner led Remembrance Services at our four Churches today and members of our local communities gathered to pay their respects to those who gave their lives.A prayer of commemoration for the fallenFather of all, remember your holy promise,and look with love on all your people, living and departed.On this day we especially ask that you would hold foreverall who have suffered during war, those who returned scarred by warfare,those who waited anxiously at home,and those who returned wounded, and disillusioned;those who mourned, and those communities that were diminished and suffered loss.Remember too those who acted with kindly compassion,those who bravely risked their own lives for their comrades,and those who in the aftermath of war, worked tirelessly for a more peaceful world.And as you remember them, remember us, O Lord;grant us peace in our time and a longing for the day when people of every language, race, and nation will be brought into the unity of Christ’s kingdom.This we ask in the name of the same Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
