THIS SUNDAY 29th JANUARY – Thanksgiving for Revd. Jim Mynors’ ministry

The 10.30am service at Pusey this Sunday will include a benefice thanksgiving to Revd. Canon Jim  Mynors for all that he has given to our churches, and for his ministry among us. Whilst we’re delighted that Jim and Helen still live in Buckland and continue to worship and minister among us, it is good to give thanks properly, as a benefice, for Jim’s time as our Associate Priest. 

BENEFICE AWAY MORNING SATURDAY 4th MARCH

at St. Mary’s Convent, Wantage, 9.30am  – 12.45pm

The ministry team have organised an away morning for all our churches in the benefice to take time out to celebrate what God has done among us over the past seven years, and to begin to think about where God may be calling us next, in the coming few years. 

All church wardens, PCC members, and all church congregation members are invited. Let’s spend a few hours together, thinking and praying on what each of our churches needs, where God is calling us, and how we can follow His call both as individual churches and as a benefice.

Whilst we’re doing this away morning as a benefice, we know that each of the seven churches is very distinctive and has its own identity, and so we’re building that into the framework of the sessions. 

The morning will be facilitated by Revd Charles Chadwick, hosted at St Mary’s Convent in Wantage, from 9.30am to 12.45pm. You’ll be home for lunch! 

There is a cost involved (which will be paid by benefice funds, though donations are welcome) so we ask everyone who wishes to come to book a FREE ticket on the Eventbrite link here. Booking will close at 5pm on Thursday 16th February (though it might be possible to slip in one or two more after that – no promises!). 

Best wishes,
