Group Service for Rogation Sunday

for 1 hour
St John the Evangelist
St John the Evangelist, Countisbury Lynton, EX35 6NE, United Kingdom

Rogation Sunday is the tradition of asking for God's blessing on agriculture and industry and also of 'beating the
bounds' which also reinforced the Parish boundaries. It falls on 5th Sunday after Easter.

You are invited to meet at St John the Evangelist, Countisbury at 10am on Sunday 31st May to either sit and enjoy
the peace and tranquility of the Church and grounds or to walk up Countisbury Hill, as a group, asking for blessings
for flourishment of agriculture and people and to beat the bounds, before returning to St John the Evangelist for a
Service.
St John the Evangelist, Countisbury and Countisbury Hill is the best placed location within the Lyn Valley Mission
Community to effectively overlook all of the other parishes (Brendon, Lynmouth, Lynton, Barbrook, Parracombe,
Martinhoe and Trentishoe).
