Weekly Update Sunday 13 July 2025 Fourth Sunday after Trinity

This week, in our services, we hear again the story of the Good Samaritan - the one who helped someone in need despite cultural and religious differences. We are called to do the same today - to be a good neighbour and help those less fortunate than ourselves. Please note some of our activities have moved venue due to the Village Hall closure. Please check the bulletin to see where you should go! Enjoy the good weather but please stay hydrated and take care of yourselves.

Weekly Update Sunday 29 June 2025 - Second Sunday after Trinity

This week we are holding a Benefice service at St Mary's Harlington 9:30. That's because our Reader, Steve, is being Ordained as a Deacon at St Albans Cathedral on Sunday at 2:30pm. All are welcome to attend the Cathedral service - seating is unreserved so the earlier you get there the better seat you're likely to get. Doors to the Cathedral will open circa 1:45pm. There is no parking at the Cathedral so City Centre car parks should be used. 60 MINUTES WITH GOD - This isn't on the bulletin but will be going ahead on Wednesday evening at 7:30 in St Mary Magdalene Westoning. All are welcome.
