Rogation Sunday

for 4 hours
St James' Church
Roydon Road Stanstead Abbots Herts., SG12 8JZ

Join us for this annual Rogation Sunday service at the old Parish Church of St James and Beating the Bounds walk that will follow the service on Sunday 25th May.

At 11am, we will hold a service at St James' Church (on Roydon Road) thanking God for the land and praying for a blessing for the harvest. At approximately 12pm, we will go on a Beating the Bounds walk. Please wear sensible shoes, bring a bottle of water and perhaps a picnic too! The ‘beating the bounds’ walk, which was traditionally an opportunity to re-establish the Parish boundaries, is a fantastic opportunity to explore the extreme edges of your Parish on foot. Maps and instructions will be available.

We look forward to welcoming you!

St John the Baptist

Welcome to St John the Baptist, Great Amwell’s Parish Church.

St John the Baptist is part of the Great Amwell with St Margarets and Stanstead Abbots Benefice. Our 3 Churches Benefice covers three villages with four churches, so we are blessed to be able to provide a variety of services. St John the Baptist, beautifully set above the New River, enjoys a more formal style of worship.

For more information about our Benefice, including our full Safeguarding Policy, please visit our website www.3churches.net
