Many thanks to those who decorated the church and gave their Harvest Gifts.

The churchwardens regret to announce that Clare Jackson will not now be joining our Parish for reasons of ill health.

The Parish therefore remains in vacancy and the post of incumbent will be advertised again in due course.

We wish Clare a successful recovery and continue to hold her, husband Mike and their two children in our prayers

Alleluiah he is risen.

He is risen indeed. Alleluiah!

Easter greetings from both churches.

The new chairs for St Mark’s church hall arrived on Tuesday. We now have 60 matching chairs plus a further 10 with arms. Thanks to Shavington-cum-Gresty Parish Council for a generous grant towards their purchase.

The old red chairs (and the even older brown/grey chairs) have given over a quarter of a century of service and have now been retired to new homes.

A big thank you to those who helped unload the new chairs and move them into the church – Sheila, Ian, Gaynor, Bill and Roger.

The unloading working party – Bill took the photo.

New chairs in the church hall – those with arms are stacked on the opposite wall.

The churchwardens are pleased to announce that Clare Jackson will be joining our Parish in July.

Clare will be ordained as a Deacon in the post of Assistant Curate under the supervision of Rev Canon Anne Lawson, vicar of St Mary’s Acton and the associated cross-country parishes.

This is a three year full-time post and Clare will be training ready for ordination as our Priest-in-Charge. Our Eucharistic services will continue to be led by visiting clergy until 2027 when Clare will be priested.

Clare is married to Mike and they have two grown-up children. They will be living in the vicarage in Weston.
