What a wonderful afternoon as Jo Burden, our new curate, was ordained Deacon at the cathedral. This was followed by a Harvesty celebration at St Michael’s, Breinton where we thought about the small acts of service that we each do, making up the much bigger picture of God’s Harvest in the world.
The Mother’s Union sold preserves and handmade bags for Water Aid and Women’s Aid, and raised over £100, and we also collected produce for the local foodbank.
We also created our Harvest Tree with decorations for Harvest and prayers of thanks, prayers for Jo, or prayers for the world. This will be echoed outside all the churches of the West Hereford Team as we move through this season of festivals. Join in if you can.

In light of the Government guidance around non-essential contact, the Archbishops of Canterbury and York have issued advice that public worship is suspended until further notice.
The West Hereford Team will be implementing the above advice with immediate effect.
Worship services are for many a time of refreshing, uplifting encouragement, so we take this action with a heavy heart, but the health and safety of our communities are of the utmost importance at this time.
Psalm 139 says
‘Where can I go from your Spirit?
Where can I flee from your presence?
If I go up to the heavens, you are there;
if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.
If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
if I settle on the far side of the sea,
even there your hand will guide me,
your right hand will hold me fast.’
We may be scattered, but we are still a part of the Body of Christ, God’s Church, and we will do our best to support one another in this time of uncertainty. Here’s a few ways we would like to offer help:
- Each church has coordinated a pastoral care team who will check in with people and offer prayers, or practical help if possible.
- Ruth will continue to say Morning Prayer at Holy Trinity daily at 8.15am, on her own. If you would like your name, or the name of a loved one, added to the prayer list, please contact us. The churches may be open at other times for prayer, please check with us.
- We have an order of service ready to go to anyone who would like to worship from home. It contains a service, prayers and lectionary readings. There is also an order of service for those wanting to make a spiritual communion. You can find these in the weekly resources at the top of this page.
- We will be publishing a sermon each week on our website and Facebook pages. If you would like a paper copy please let us know.
- We will attempt to print and send out Teamtalk as usual as a way of keeping people connected.
- If you would like to join others virtually for worship, you might like to watch: Songs of Praise on BBC One, Sundays at 1.15pm or listen: Radio 4 Sunday Worship from 08.10am
- We will be looking at other ways that we can worship together as a scattered community over this period of Lent and Easter.
Please do remember to take sensible precautions for yourselves and others.
Psalm 24 says ‘Be still, and know that I am God’
May you find God in the stillness of these days.
Jesus said ‘Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.’
May the peace of God which passes all understanding keep your hearts and minds in the knowledge and love of God, and of his son, Jesus Christ, our Lord.
