Good Friday our worship is:

10:30am Morning Prayer, with hymns in Keinton Mandeville

Holy Saturday there will be Easter Garden decorating and an Easter Egg Hunt in Lydford Churchyard

Easter Day our worship is:

8:30am Holy Communion in Barton St David

10:30am Holy Communion in Lydford on Fosse (We’re going to be inside)

On Saturday 23 April there is a parish coffee morning and plant sale, plus bric a brac etc in Barton Village Hall from 10:00am – 12:00

Next Sunday 24 April our worship is:

8:30am Morning Prayer Lydford on Fosse

4:00pm Faith ‘n Fun Keinton Churchyard (which will include an Easter Egg Hunt!)

After Easter we’re going to do ‘The Bible Course’ which is prepared by The Bible Society, you can find you can find the details here

I’d like to suggest that we do this on Wednesday evenings:

27/4, 11/5, 18/5, 1/6, 15/6, 22/6, 6/7, 13/7 all at 7:30pm

It will help if those coming have a manual which I’m happy to order, but it would be good to know if you’re planning to be there, then I’ll know how many to order. If you can let me know by Wednesday of next week (20/4) that would be helpful.

With best wishes for a Happy Easter

Good afternoon

This week’s bulletin is attached.

So far this week I’ve been into school for assembly, last week I attended Keinton Youth Adventure Group and, on each occasion, we told the Easter Story in some way or other.

There are many more opportunities for us to dwell on that story, through the worship on:

We hope that the Easter Day service in Lydford will be outside but will make a final decision nearer the time, depending upon the weather.

With best wishes for Holy Week and Easter

Sunday 20 March

Good afternoon

Please see this week’s notice sheet attached

At Benefice Council on Monday, we decided that the wearing of masks in church should now become voluntary. Whilst we recognise that there are some who will choose to continue to wear them whilst others will choose not to, given the lifting of all restrictions nationally a month ago we felt that the time had come to make this change.

We do still have notices in each church for you to use should you wish to have a space on the pew next to you.

Our worship this week is:

08:30am Holy Communion Barton St David

10:30am Morning Prayer Keinton Mandeville.

Next Sunday is Mothering Sunday. Our 10:30am worship will be an All-Age Interactive Service with Family choir in Barton St David.

08:30am will be Holy Communion in Lydford on Fosse.

Please note we are no longer collecting items for Ukraine.
