New Service Times For Crathorne Church
As you
know, we are now in a combined benefice with Hutton Rudby, Middleton, Kirklevington & Worsall with Reverend Pam Sanders
as our Priest in Charge. This has meant that all churches have had to alter their service times, as it was not possible to
staff all the existing services. A rota has been agreed for all the churches, based on the first four Sundays in the month.
Where there is a 5th Sunday in the month the intention is to have services at different churches where we can all
meet and get to know each other. The venues will alter.
The first of these '5th Sundays' will be the:
29th November 2009 when a service will be at 09.15 at Hutton Rudby( an
Eucharist), & 1800 at Kirklevington,( an Evensong).
For Sunday 31st January 2010 there will be a service at 10.30 at Crathorne
( an Eucharist) & 18.00 at Hutton Rudby (an Evensong).
There will be confirmatory announcements in
church nearer then time.
The new rota starts
on the 1st Sunday 4th October 2009
1st Sunday 09.15 Eucharist
2nd Sunday 09.15 Eucharist
3rd Sunday 18.00 Eucharist/ Evening Prayer
4th Sunday 11.00 Eucharist
We are all feeling our way with the new arrangements and the churchwardens & PCC want to respond
to your wishes, especially about the type of service, so we would welcome your feedback. Your thoughts regarding the type
of service for the 3rd Sunday
at 18.00, whether it should be Eucharist or Evening Prayer would be especially welcome.
The plan is for this rota to run for six months and then be reviewed,
it is expected that it will continue unless insurmountable problems arise.
Arrangements for Remembrance Sunday and Christmas have been confirmed.
There will be a services at All Saints Crathorne:
Remembrance Sunday
10.30 on the 8th November 2009
Christingle Service
will be at 17.00 on the 24th
December 2009
Christmas Day Service will be at 10.00 on the 25th December 2009
