The Sisters of Mary Morning Star would like to invite you to join them for the Walk of Witness on Friday 29th March in Lynton. This is a traditional Christian walk, on Good Friday, following the way of the Cross of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

This year, they will start at St Mary’s Church at 9am, and from there they will walk up to Hollerday Hill together. It is a very slow walk, stopping often, to pray, sing, contemplate Jesus and following him step by step as he carries his Cross.

Everyone is most welcome to join us for part, or the whole of the walk, which will finish in the convent garden.

We will be praying for the needs of the world, for you, and your intentions.

Christ Church

Dear Church Visitor

Whether you are a virtual or actual visitor, then welcome.  The church is open daily from10am until 4pm for private prayer. We offer a quiet place to sit away from the noise and distractions of the world.

Our regular services are Holy Communion at 9am on the first Sunday of each month, and a less formal family worship at 10am on the third Sunday led by members of the congregation. There will be extra services for special events in the church year such as Christmas, Easter and Plough Sunday.

We are currently looking for volunteers to supplement our existing team doing the chores to maintain the church, making it welcoming for worshippers and visitors. If you would like to put your skills and efforts to good use, please telephone Linda on the PCC, 01598763626. More here.

If you are on holiday here and visiting the area, you will be very welcome at any of our services.

Visitors are very welcome. If you are a passing walker or cyclist, you may be grateful for somewhere to make running repairs. You will find a small box of useful items just inside the door on the table on the left.

You can find the latest Mission Community Newsletter in the News and Notices menu under Notice Sheets.
