DESCRIPTION:Our services in our churches continue as normal\, however\, we
  recognise that through ill health\, frailty\, or infirmity\, not everyone
  is able to join us every week. Therefore\, if you are unable to attend in
  person\, you are warmly invited to join in with our Rector\, The Revd Mar
 k Woodrow\, who is joined by our new Curate\, The Revd Sarah Smith\, as he
  celebrates Holy Communion from the Vicarage. \n\nThis week we continue ou
 r journey through the season of "Ordinary Time"\, but there is nothing ord
 inary about this period of the Churches year.  It is called this simply be
 cause the weeks of Ordinary Time are numbered.  The Latin word 'ordinalis'
 \, refers to numbers in series\, from which we get the English word 'order
 '.\n\nThe numbered weeks represent the ordered life of the Church - a peri
 od in which we live our lives neither in feasting (as in the Christmas and
  Easter seasons)\, nor in reflection or penance (as in the seasons of Adve
 nt and Lent)\, instead the Church focuses on growth and renewal\, and look
 s forward in expectation of of the second coming of Christ.\n\nThe reading
 s for today are Isaiah 44:6-8\, Romans 8:12-25\, and Matthew 13:24-30\, 36
 -43.\n\nThe hymns for today are\, Rise and hear! the Lord is speaking\, an
 d All-creating heavenly Giver.\n\nA service booklet to accompany this serv
 ice is also available please email rector@stourvalley.org.uk for a copy or
  download below.
