All Souls Service

St Andrew's Church, Cheddar
Address

We invite you to join us in St. Andrew’s Church, Cheddar on Sunday 2nd November at 4pm, for a special service in which we remember those we have lost.

We do this at this time of the year, as 2nd November is All Saints’ Day, and by “Saints” we mean all those who have wanted to live lives that honour God and have gone before us, including the loved ones we may have lost.

There will be a list at the door as you enter the church, on which the name of the person you are remembering can be written, or you are welcome to email the office on [email protected] by Wednesday 29th October.

After the service there will be the opportunity to chat over a cup of tea or coffee.

Safeguarding

Our Benefice is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO). Our Diocese’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our PSO. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please see the individual Parish pages for the Parish Safeguarding Officers details. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority’s children or adult social care services.
