On this the fourth Sunday before Advent, the morning service is a Benefice Holy Communion service at All Saints, East Stratton. (Please see separate event listing for that.) In the afternoon, however, we will be holding our usual Service of Memorial at St Margaret's, led by Rev'd Jo Criscenti. This is a special service to mark the updating of the Memorial Book. All are very welcome to remember those we have loved and lost, including those whose names are in, or to be added to, our Book of Remembrance.
There will be an opportunity to view the names, and refreshments will be served afterwards.
