Harvest Celebrations!

All Saints, Holy Trinity, St. Michael's - Breinton, St. Nicholas

Last weekend we celebrated Harvest across the team. A time to give thanks for the gifts of creation, and to share what we can with others.

Our flower guilds, flower ladies and a few helpers bedecked all our churches in autumn glory. Have a look at what they got up to at St Michael’s.

Our youth group were busy outside St Nicholas‘, tidying and decorating ahead of the harvest service. They even broke out the fairy lights for the occasion! After all that hardwork they definitely earnt their pizza and games!

As well as our morning services, we invited all creatures great and small to join us for a pet service at St Michael’s. We were delighted to welcome some canine worshippers into our congregation, and some of our families brought along photos and cuddlies for the blessing instead.
