November News
This month's photo is of St Sebastian's Porch. The Church community and local schools took part in a project from Lincoln Cathedral inviting congregations to create their own doves of peace installation. I am sure you will agree, it’s a beautiful installation and many thanks go to Kay and all who contributed.
November is a month for remembering so here are a few items, coming up this month centering around the importance of remembering:
Remembrance Sunday-There are services in Denton, Barrowby, Great Gonerby, Harlaxton and Woolsthorpe by Belvoir to honour those who have died in past armed conflict and to pray for peace. Please see the calendar for details.
Memorial service-this time of year can be hard for those who are mourning the loss of a loved one. We have three very different services this year to enable people the space to remember and give thanks. On Sunday 24th November at 11am there will be a short Memorial Service at All Saints, Barrowby. On the 18th Decemeber at Harlaxton Church at 7pm and on the 21st December, at St Sebastian's in Great Gonerby at 7pm there will be services to remember and find stillness for those who find Christmas difficult.

St Catherine's 'on the Hill' may only have been built about 100 years ago but since ancient times there has been a place of worship here. It is a small, holy place where you can feel the stillness and the presence of the sacred.
