For this year's Plough Sunday service, we are very pleased to welcome the Archdeacon of Barnstaple, The Rev'd Canon Verena Breed to officiate. Members of Blackmoor Gate Young Farmers bring a plough into the church to be blessed. Plough Sunday marks the start of the farming year in the church calendar. This is a group benefice service to which everyone is invited. There are no other Lyn Group services that day. Everyone is very welcome.

St Martin

Dear Virtual Church Visitor,

We are pleased to say that St Martin's will be open daily for visitors and for private prayer. There will also be a service of Holy Communion on the second Sunday of each month.

Despite the relaxation of government restrictions, Covid cases are currently very high in North Devon. We would ask those attending services to continue to take sensible precautions.

The Diocesan procedure and contacts for safeguarding have recently changed. You can find the details here.

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