Pop Up Teas

Back by popular request! We will be in the churchyard serving fantastic cream teas and homemade cakes once again this year. Do come along and try them if you haven’t yet enjoyed waitress service and very spoiling teatime treats!

We are serving teas from 2pm to 4.30pm on Sunday 13th, 20st and 27th of July.

 

Church Fete

The Fete will be in Walcotts Hall Garden this year, thanks to the generosity of Simon and Nicki. The date is Saturday August 30th.

The Punch and Judy show will be with us again this year – Hurrah!

Bottle Stall at the Fete

Let’s make it a bumper year!  The box will be outside the Old Vicarage (next to the village Hall) again this year from the beginning of July. So, lots of bottles please – every thing from shampoo to champagne!

 

A New Parish Priest

We are preparing a 'Parish Profile'. This is a joint document, produced by representatives of the 6 parishes. It contains information about each individual church and its congregation, about its style of worship and its local activities. It will form part of the package of information available to anyone interested in applying for the post of priest-in-charge of these 6 churches. The post will be advertised round about Easter time. It is hoped that interviews will take place soon after.

Once completed, this document will be available on this website along with the advertisement that will accompany it. 

 

Disposing of dead flowers in the churchyard – a reminder

PLEASE NOTE – We ask everyone to kindly take home any dead flowers or flower wrappings or Christmas wreaths rather than leaving them anywhere in the churchyard now that the Christmas season is over. Thank yo

 

OPEN BOOK

Open The Book is run by the Bible Society and it teaches young children the simple stories of the bible in a form that young people can understand. A small group of us go into Great Tey School once a fortnight to read a story with actions during their assembly. The story only takes about ten minutes and we have a practice for half an hour beforehand. lt is a Church School, so we have a responsibility to teach the children about the bible.

lf you feel that you could give us an hour of your time every other Thursday at 2pm.during term time, it would help us maintain this valuable service. Thank you.
