Dear Congregation and Friends of St Mary,

Please find attached the Benefice Newsletter for Sunday and associated documents from Lucy. In particular I would draw your attention to a message of support in the Newsletter from the Lord-Lieutenant of Oxfordshire, Tim Stevenson.

By now you will be aware that all the churches in the Benefice have closed their doors to both public and private worship.  This was a difficult decision to take but, given the path and pace of the pandemic, it was the only prudent thing to do.  As soon as circumstances change, I will let you know by e-mail.

In the meantime the Benefice has moved completely to the online provision of services. Please find a link to the Benefice Facebook page where you can find these services: https://www.facebook.com/shrivenhamandashbury/.

Best Wishes,

Dennis

Church Warden St Mary The Virgin, Longcot
