Braunston All Saints Church: *Bees and wasps* 14 July 2025 Braunston Church has had an ongoing issue with wasps and bees in and around the church for a number of years, but this week has seen a huge increase in activity inside the building. Sadly, this has led us to have to make some difficult decisions about our worship services because we don’t feel that it would be safe to be in the building for any length of time. We have booked the village hall (VH), where we can, until the end of August (see schedule below) and will signpost to other services in the team when we cannot meet. Please see the village WhatsApp group each Thursday for reminders of the coming Sunday’s arrangements.

As the body of Christ, we are the church — not defined by a building, but by our unity in Him. Wherever we come together in His name, we are the church — together, in Christ. I look forward to worshipping with you at one or more of these services. Jenni
