Sunday 1st November 2026

A Benefice Service of Holy Communion celebrating All Saints' Day was held at All Hallows' Church presided over by Rev'd Canon Steve Wright. This was immediately followed by a service for All Souls' Day led by Carol, Anne and James as well as the Vicar.

For the All Souls' Service the congregation are invited to remember in prayer a loved one departed. A candle is lit for each name given. At the end of this very moving service the congregation left the church quietly but assembled outside the entrance to have a photograph taken.

This will be the last Benefice Service at All Hallows' before Steve and Jo depart, fortunately the weather was kind and the photograph was successfully taken.  Thanks to Mrs Gillian Blythe for accepting this responsibility.

Refreshments were then served back in the Church Room.
