Greetings all,
Please find this week's Bloxham Benefice Weekly Sheet below, with details of what's happening across the parish and service times.
A busy weekend ahead with Soup Saturday in Bloxham Parish Rooms from 12.00-1.30.
Remembrance Sunday begins with an 8am Holy Communion using the 1662 Book of Common Prayer, so we’ll be observing the 23rd Sunday after Trinity in the lessons and prayers.
Whilst we don’t have a 9.30 service of worship in Bloxham this Sunday or any other morning services in Milcombe or South Newington, we will gather with the wider community for an Act of Remembrance at the Bloxham War Memorial from 10.45, observing the two-minutes silence at 11.00.
The Community Parade service follows in Bloxham St Mary’s, starting as soon as we can make our way up the hill and process into the church. We are fortunate to have Paul Sanderson, Headmaster of Bloxham School, as our preacher for the service.
At 6pm Milcombe holds an Act of Remembrance at St Laurence’s and there will be an Act of Remembrance on 11 Nov at 11am in the South Newington churchyard around the war memorial.
They shall grow not old as we who are left grow old. Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them.
Dale,
Vicar | Bloxham
