Christians Together Lymington and Pennington will be singing carols in the high street on Saturday 4th December at 10:30am, led by the Salvation Army band. All welcome, do come along and share this hope of Christmas in our town.
Churchyard Tidy
We are having another Churchyard Working Party on 11th December 2021 from 10am to 12 noon. All are welcome and we will be providing coffee, tea and mince pies for all those who come along to help.
Please bring suitable attire and gardening tools. We look forward to seeing you.
Rachel’s Story
As many of you know, our priest, Rachel, is open about the challenges she has faced in the past with mental health. Metro newspaper recently interviewed Rachel, to help open up curiosity and conversation about this important area, that is still subject to so much shame and stigma. The article can be read here.
Get involved; would you like to contribute with readings or intercessions?
Key parts of a church services are in sharing the wisdom within our Bibles and through prayer, giving thanks and sharing our fears and concerns with our loving God.
If you would like to contribute to the work we do in the form of the readings or leading in prayer, do please get in touch – we’d love to include you in our services. You don’t have to be able to be in the building for reading either; we can include you pre-recorded too!
Get in touch – we’d love to hear from you.
Monday study group
Are you interested in exploring your faith journey further outside of the Church services? Perhaps you would like to know more about some of the things we include in the service as standard?
If so may we invite you to join our study group on Mondays, from 10.30am to 12 noon on Zoom (details below).
We are about to start a new Pilgrim Course looking at The Eucharist in more detail. All are welcome and our sessions will be lead by Jane who is passionate about exploring faith and leading those discussions and wonderings that are not always possible in a service setting. This will also follow on from Rachel’s service on 7th November where she talked us through the meaning and background of the Communion Service.
If you would like to join us, please email takepart@penningtonchurch.uk and we will be happy to welcome you.
