It is a traditional English celebration of the beginning of the agricultural year that has seen some revival over recent years.

Service of Holy Communion at St Oswald Church

We welcome any willing volunteers to join us for the annual Church Clean Up day. Help is also needed in the churchyard to pick up leaves etc! We always make time for a cup of coffee/tea and a chat!

Please join us for our special Mothering Sunday service which always takes place on the fourth Sunday of Lent. The service dates back hundreds of years when traditionally it was a day when children, mainly daughters, who had gone to work as domestic servants were given a day off to visit their mother and family and to return to their home or ‘mother’ church. It is a day when we thank God for the love of our mothers, and we thank them in person for their care for us. A small posy of daffodils will be presented to members of the congregation. We are aware of those for whom Mothering Sunday is a painful time and include them in our prayers.

Palm Sunday is the first Day of Holy Week. It is when Christians remember how Jesus entered Jerusalem riding on a donkey. It is called Palm Sunday because the people were so happy to see Jesus and knew that he was very important, so they took branches from the Palm and Olive Trees that lined the road. They waved them in the air shouting 'Hosanna' (which means 'God Saves' in Hebrew) and put some of them on the road to make it easier for the donkey to walk on the rocky road.

Maundy Thursday commemorates the Last Supper when Jesus shared the Passover meal with his disciples on the night before he was crucified.

On this day we commemorate the passion, or suffering, and death on the cross of Jesus Christ.

The church is open for prayer and quiet contemplation.

Easter Day is the most important day of the year for Christians. It is when we celebrate that three days after being killed, Jesus rose from the dead -'the Resurrection'. Please join us for our service of Holy Communion. Please note: There is a fairly flat access to the altar area. Communion can be brought to your pew if requested. Hearing loop is installed.

The church will be open from 12.pm until 4pm. There will be a cafe selling tea and coffee and a gift stall. You are welcome to just come and wander around our beautiful church. There will be help available re family graveyard enquiries and the history of the church. There are some mobility restrictions in the church. Disabled access to the church is via the lych gate on Bridges Lane. Please note there are no fully disabled toilets.
