Christmas at St Giles

23/12/2022

 
Although we have no services at our church over the Christmas period, the church will be open every day.  As in other years, we have very generously been donated a Christmas tree which will be lit every day until 12th night.

We hope you will go into the church to say a prayer, spend a few quiet minutes in its atmosphere or simply to see the tree.

There will be services on Christmas Day at Coleshill and Eaton Hastings as advertised in the Badbury Parish News and in the church porch.

Wishing everyone a very Happy Christmas.

St Giles

9/12/2022

 
St Giles Church Service

On Sunday, 11th, at 10.30 am, we will be welcoming the Revd Chris Etherton, a retired priest who lives in Faringdon, to take our Holy Communion service and preach.  As this is the last service in our church before Christmas, we shall be singing carols instead of hymns.  There will be coffee and cake in the Vicarage afterwards.

We hope as many people as possible will come to welcome Chris.

Evening of Music and Bubbles

The members of the PCC would like to add their thanks to all those who worked so hard to make this evening so successful, to Pam, Pauline and Mandy for their superb organisation and to Lynette and all the other musicians who gave us such a wonderful concert - not forgetting the chefs of the lovely canapés that just seemed to keep coming and coming!!

The amount raised will be very gratefully received.  It is planned to put it towards a roof repair fund, as the south side of the nave in particular is going to be in need of serious restoration before much longer.

Thanks to everyone again.

Churchwarden on behalf of the members of the PCC

Evening of Music & Bubbles

5/12/2022

 
We would just like to Thank everyone who attended our Fundraiser for the Church on the 7th October in our Beautiful Church followed by Canapes & Fizz in the Reading Room afterwards.
 
A total of £503.78 was raised for the Church.
 
Special Thanks to our talented Musicians in the Village, Lynette, Katherine, Oliver, Russ, Anna, Joanna, Glyn & Nick. You all entertained us with such a professional standard of delightful & varied music.
 
The Church looked beautiful and we thank Mandy and her team for making it look so welcoming with all the hedgerow flowers & greenery along with the lights both inside and out. Thanks also to Melissa who helped with the canapes and our able Barmen Robbie & Mike.
 
Thank you again to everyone who helped us make it such a splendid evening for our Village.
A True Community Event.
 
Pam & Pauline
 
The Community Fund supported this event by contributing to some of its cost. If you or anyone you know would like to organize an event the Community Fund can help fund it. It could be anything: a sporting club, a film night or a celebration. We are here as a group to enable fun things to happen in our Village. If you have children who would like to start a group we would be happy to help fund its start up.
 
If you need our help contact one of our members.

Badbury Parish News - Winter 2022

13/11/2022

 
The latest edition of Badbury Parish News has been added to the website,

Act of Remembrance - Sunday, 13th November

11/11/2022

 
The Act of Remembrance will take place as usual at the War Memorial at 12 noon.  Revd Maureen will officiate in the short service.

Those who are new to the village may not know that the timing of this is determined by the fact that Revd Maureen has to take a ceremony in each of the four parishes in the Benefice on this day, so she is kept very busy!

We hope to see you there.

Harvest Festival and lunch at St Giles

4/10/2022

 
A reminder to everyone that the postponed Harvest Festival and Harvest Lunch will take place on Sunday next, 9th October. 

As we have a concert in the church on Friday evening, can you please bring any produce or other goods that you would like to donate to decorate the church to the church on Saturday morning.  All dry goods (tins,  packets, etc) will be donated to the Faringdon Food Bank and edible produce will go to the Faringdon Baptist Church for the lunches they provide.

If you have already indicated that you are coming to the Harvest Lunch, I will be contacting you in the next day or so to confirm whether you are still coming.  If you were not able to come last time, but would now like to join us, please let me know - 241632 or phemes43@gmail.com.

We hope you will be able to join us to celebrate this milestone of the country year.
