We are encouraged to put down deep roots of hope by connecting with God who is with us at all times. In Lent we journey with Jesus on the difficult and thorny road that leads all the way to the cross on Good Friday – and beyond, to the transformation of Easter Day.

God invites us to bring to him our own journey through everyday life. In the disappointment of daily setbacks and the pain of deeper hurts, we discover that God is present with us. And God promises a future where all things are healed and made new.

Living Hope offers us the opportunity to deepen our hope in God and be part of what God is doing to bring hope in the world.

The readings and reflections explore how we can have hope in times of frustration or uncertainty; the hope found in joining with others; the invitation to notice signs of hope around us; the courage to face reality and pursue a hopeful future; and the ways God transforms death into life at Easter.

We are hoping that people from across the Westbury Area Churches Together will join together for this year’s Lent groups. They will start w/c 3 March and there will be six sessions.

There will be free booklets available to accompany the meetings which have been purchased by WACT. The material is also available to download from the Church of England website nearer the time. You can receive daily reflections in your inbox throughout Lent.

There will be an introduction to the material at our Ash Wednesday service of Holy Communion at 7.00 pm at All Saints church on Wednesday 5th March for all who are able to come.

We have three groups this year which will meet across the Westbury Area. Please sign up for your preferred group using the sign up sheet in our churches, or by emailing [email protected].

Or by talking to your church leader.

Come and see what Experience Easter is all about!

The six stations for Experience Easter will be displayed on Saturday 29 March at All Saints Church from 10.00-12.00.

Volunteers will be available to explain the stations or show you around. We hope and pray that the children will bring their parents to show them what they learned about the Easter story.

At our Team Focus day in January, a number of people expressed interest in having some more Team Services. We have therefore decided to offer one on Palm Sunday this year. This will take place at 10.00 am to allow people time to get there, and any people who turn up at the wrong place, time to travel to Westbury Leigh!

Churches are invited to bring their White Horse Team banners. Those who are able to are invited to walk to the church, carrying your banners. There is ample parking.

We shall be inviting members from our different churches to take part in different ways. Come and along and renew our relationships across the Team and enjoy this special time of worship together for Palm Sunday.

The next Baptism preparation session for the White Horse Team will take place on Sunday 13th April at 2.30 pm at All Saints Church, Westbury.

This is for all baptisms across our churches. We shall be setting out what is involved in having your child/children baptised, the declarations to be made by parents and godparents, and how you can support your child as they grow up within the Christian faith. Parents, godparents and children are welcome to attend.

It is at this session that we book in or confirm your baptism date.
Please book your place with our Team Administrator at: [email protected].
