Our next Baptism preparation session will be held at All Saints' Church on Sunday 26 April at 2.30 pm. This is for families who are thinking of having their baby/child baptised in one of the churches in the White Horse Team. If you would like to know more and book a date in for the baptism please contact our Team Office or Revd Rebecca as soon as possible to book your place. Or you would be welcome to turn up. We will discuss what’s involved in having your child baptised, what happens in the service, the role of godparents and how you can support your child in their faith and spiritual life. We usually book the date for the baptism in the diary at this service. Baptisms are usually held at Holy Trinity Church, Dilton Marsh on the first Sunday of the month at Praise & Worship at 9.30 am, or at All Saints' Church on the fourth Sunday of the month at All Age Worship at 10.00 am. Please be in touch to find out more.Revd Rebecca
The next meeting of the Disability and Inclusion Group is on Saturday 25 April at 10.30am. If you would like to come along and find out more about what we’re doing and support us, you would be very welcome. Please contact Revd Rebecca to find out where we’re meeting.You may have noticed that we have placed a suggestion box in the south aisle at All Saints (see picture attached). We would like your views about the different ways in which we can make our church buildings, events, services and activities more welcoming and inclusive to all. If you have an idea about this, please note it down on the suggestion card and put it in the box. We will collect these up and bring them to our meeting for discussion, and see what we can do. Some may be quite straightforward, while other ideas may be more challenging, but we will consider them. Thank you in advance.
