BAT TALK AND WALK

for 1 hour
St Margaret and St Andrews Church
Littleham Exmouth, EX8 2RF, United Kingdom

Following the successful evening last year, come and join us for our second EcoChurch Bat Walk & Talk. We begin inside the Church with warm drinks (and possibly cakes) while Sarah Butcher tells us what to look out for and where to look when we go outside to walk around the Churchyard as the light fades. Bat detectors will be available to help us find these fascinating creatures, as they come out to feed on small flying insects. This will involve walking on uneven ground, so sensible footwear is advised.

St Margaret and St Andrews Church

A church at Littleham is mentioned in the Bull of Eugenius in 1149 but it is probable that it had been in existence for many years before – even back to Saxon days. These days, St Margaret & St Andrew's Church is a friendly, welcoming Church where people from around the Parish and beyond worship and enjoy fellowship together. We are one of three Churches in the Mission Community of Littleham-cum-Exmouth with Lympstone. Our Sunday morning service is at 10.00 am. Twice a month the morning service is an All Age family friendly service. During Term time on Sundays at 5.30 pm we hold an informal "Open to God" worship service, with a bring and share meal followed by a reading, talk and worship songs. This beautiful, old Church the perfect setting for Weddings and Baptisms. The Churchyard has the tomb of Lady Nelson among other historical figures. There is plenty of room for future burials and we are proud of the Natural Burial Ground and our rewilding  project to protect the local biodiversity. Our Sexton, Shaun, is happy to advise people with any Churchyard queries and our experienced clergy will be honoured to guide you through all life events, including funeral services.
