Faith Focus

Occurring
for 45 mins
Venue
Weston-on-the-Green - St Mary the Virgin
Address
Church Lane Weston-on-the-Green Bicester, OX25 3QS, United Kingdom

For those who are unable to take part in the practical work of our Lent Labour sessions, we are offering a three-quarter hour Faith Focus in church before lunch. This will explore biblical teaching about the value of work – not only paid work, but all the everyday tasks through which we serve one another and honour God.

After each session we will gather in church for a simple lunch of bread, soup and cheese. This shared meal will be an important part of the day – a moment to pause, to give thanks, and to enjoy fellowship together.

Weston-on-the-Green - St Mary the Virgin

St Mary’s has a regular, welcoming congregation, and a strong presence at the heart of our community. We hold social and fund-raising events from time to time.

There are generally several services each month, and the church is always full for major occasions such as Harvest, Remembrance and Christmas.

There is a rota of local volunteers who are responsible for cleaning, flower arranging, bell-ringing and the upkeep of the churchyard.

Pastoral care is very important to us and individual members of the congregation are active in helping those in need in the village. Please get in touch with one of the wardens or clergy if you would like a visit or know of someone who would appreciate one.

The church is normally open during daylight hours. There is seating in the pews for about 106 people and an additional 10 chairs available.
