October News
October is traditionally the month where it turns cooler and the leaves begin to fall! Here is what October holds for us:
Creationtide.
Creationtide concludes on the 4th October which is the day Christians remember St Francis of Assisi, the patron Saint of the environment and animals because he loved all creatures. Last Thursday evening, to mark the end of creationtide a group of us met for a Prayer Walk at All Saint's in Barrowby. You can see pictures above. It was a beautiful evening and wonderful to listen to the birds and pray in God's creation.

Woolsthorpe St James
Welcome to St James' Church
St James the Greater sits boldly within the village of Woolsthorpe-by-Belvoir as a comforting reminder of Our Lord's constant presence. Within weathered walls here is peace and beauty; alive in spirit (alongside God's creatures ... bats, birds, bees, butterflies, cats ...)
Come and see, you will be blessed!
