A service to remember those loved ones we have lost however long ago.

We shall be inviting all those for whom we have conducted a funeral or burial of ashes service in our local churches to this service. There will be hymns, prayers, a reading from the Bible, a short reflection and time to remember our loved ones who have died. This service is also for any of our church members or people in the community who would like to remember a loved one who has died at any time. We read out their names in the service. Tea, coffee and cake are served at the end. There is no need to book. Please just turn up with your families and friends. This is a Team service for all our churches this year.

This service is open to anyone.

Join us for a short said service of holy communion followed by refreshments.

We shall be holding another Light Party this year, as an alternative to Halloween, for primary school age children and their families.
Children must be accompanied by an adult. Younger children with primary school siblings are welcome to come along as well.

There will be crafts, games, story-time, activities, refreshments and fun! Children can dress up in their sparkly party clothes if they wish.

Many of you remember our former curate, Holly Newton, who promoted the subject of disability and church inclusion in our parishes before she left. We have a small group who are taking this forward and who would like to promote better provision for and accessibility of our church events, services and activities. If anyone is interested in being part of this group to help us develop this across our Team Ministry, please be in touch with me as soon as possible. Our next meeting is planned for Saturday 22nd November at 10.30 am – 12.00 noon. I can give you further details of venue etc. If you would like get a flavour of what we are doing, please read the accessibility notice on our website on A Church Near You.

Revd Rebecca Harris

Join us for a Team Service with the Right Revd Andrew Rumsey, Bishop of Ramsbury.

Bishop of Ramsbury is joining us for a Team Service of Holy Communion and Confirmation on this Advent Sunday. We have three candidates from Westbury and Dilton Marsh. This is a very special occasion and we are delighted that the Bishop can come to confirm three adult candidates.

If anyone else is interested in getting baptised and/or confirmed at this service, please be in touch with Revd Rebecca Harris as soon as possible, so we can arrange some appropriate preparation in time.

As this will be a Team Service, there will be no other services in our churches that Sunday. We hope as many people as possible will come along and support this beautiful and moving service, support our confirmation candidates and meet our Bishop. This will be a good start to the Advent season too.

Followed by coffee and then lunch at 12.30 pm in Westbury Parish hall.
All are welcome to come to lunch afterwards. Please put your name on the list in your church. If you are able to contribute a dish towards the lunch, please see the list in your church.

Please pray for our candidates and their families and friends in this service.

We look forward to welcoming everyone to this special service for Advent Sunday!
