SERVICES IN THE BENEFICE IN NOVEMBER 2023

The clocks have gone back and Remembrance Day is upon us. We will have services in each church plus an afternoon zoom service when we remember those who died from the World Wars last century. The service in Annscroft will be shorter than the others and the reading of names at Longden will be followed by a Holy Communion Service. On Saturday 11^th November there will be a short Act of Remembrance at 10.55am at the Hanwood Memorial. Do join us for any of these.

Then we start the shortest Advent we can have as Christmas Day falls on a Monday. We will have our first Christingle Service at 4.30pm on Sunday 3^rd December in Annscroft Church – NOTE THE EARLIER TIME. PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN CHRISTINGLE ORANGES. Ask if you need help with this. If you miss that there will be a Christingle Service combined with a Gift Service – when we receive presents (unwrapped) for local families who otherwise may not receive a present – at Hanwood Church at 4.30pm on Sunday 10^th December.
