2.30pm WALK OF REMEMBRANCE AND THANKSGIVING Prayer walk around All Saints churchyard – led by Rev Simon Tillotson. This is an unusual but no doubt highly emotional and spiritual event as we pause to remember loved ones resting in the churchyard. If you are coming on the walk, please let Simon know at the time of the walk of a grave you would like to pause at (it might be a close relative or a friend from the community or from church). When we get to the grave, Simon will then ask you about that person so be prepared to say a few words about them (just one to two minutes is fine) and then Simon will lead us all in a prayer in memory of them.  If you are a bit worried about speaking, but are coming on the walk and would still like that person remembered, give Simon a piece of paper with your thoughts, so he can read it out at the grave. Our journey in the churchyard will inspire our own journey onwards as we remember the qualities of those we remember.

8.30pm  Compline by candelight followed by glass of wine afterwards, led by Rev Simon Tillotson – Compline from 8.30pm to 8.45pm, glass of wine from 8.45pm – at All Saints church
