Welcome!

Welcome to the website covering the two benefices of Berrow and Longdon, in the South Western corner of Worcester Diocese in the shadow of the Malvern Hills.  Or more correctly this covers the United Benefice of Berrow with Pendock, Eldersfield, Hollybush and Birtsmorton and the Benefice of Longdon, Castlemorton, Bushley and Queenhill with Holdfast, all of which is quite a mouthful!

This Sunday we have two 10.30am services of Holy Communion Service: at Birstmorton Church & at St. Mary’s Longdon.  Kaleidoscope at Castlemorton takes place at 6.30pm at St. Gregory’s. 

Looking ahead to the rest of the month:

  • 25th September 2.15pm at All Saints, Hollybush, Deanery Prayer Walk on the theme of Creation and Sacred Space 
  • 26th September from 10am to 12 noon, Macmillan Coffee Morning at Pendock Cross Church
  • 28th September, Berrow and Pendock Pumpkin Festival from 12 noon to 4pm at the newly refurbished and fabulous Berrow Village Hall – more details in the parish magazine or via the hall Facebook page
  • 29th September, Joint Harvest Festival service for Berrow and Longdon Benefices, 10.30am at St Gregory’s Castlemorton followed by Bring and Share lunch.  Donations of tins and dried goods for the Ledbury Foodbank would be very welcome at this service.

We continue to pray for the people of Ukraine and those in the Middle East, and Bishop John has asked us to send out this prayer into our congregations and communities:

Lord of all the earth,

be present with the people of Ukraine, Israel and Gazza
at this time of danger, fear, and conflict.
Grant that wise and peaceable counsels may yet prevail,
and give to all suffering nations the freedom they desire and deserve.
We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
 

Do keep an eye on either the calendar on this web site, our Benefice magazine, the Castlemorton newsletter or our Facebook page for up to the minute news on our service schedule, and keep in mind that we  continue to hold Phone Church services at 7pm every Friday – click here for details on how to join us.
