This afternoon, our Benefice schools came together to participate in our annual Armistice Service at Pershore Commemorative Garden. Led with prayers offered by Canon Claire Lording, wreaths were duly laid on behalf of Pershore High School, Abbey Park Primary School, Holy Redeemer School, Orchard Primary School, Pinvin CofE Academy, the Royal British Legion and the Royal Naval Association. The Exhortation was read by RBL Chairman Gerald Gregory during which the Standard was dipped and a minute of silence was held as a mark of respect to the Fallen. The service concluded with the Kohima Epitaph before a vote of thanks was given to all the children who participated. Speaking afterwards, Canon Claire.said "This is always one of the most poignant services of Remembrance where our Benefice schools come together to participate. The wreaths will be on display at the Commemorative Garden for the next 2 weeks so that both residents and visitors can see the level of respect that our young people have. Each year the pupils of our schools are impeccable and a true credit to their schools, their parents and our community." ... See MoreSee Less

Have you ever visited our beautiful St Mary’s ch Have you ever visited our beautiful St Mary’s church in Wick? 

A medieval chapelry of St Andrew’s, Pershore, the core of St Mary’s is late Norman, with a series of 19th century restorations. 

The church features a fine collection of stained glass including work by Kempe and Comper. 

The village is walkable from Pershore across our ancient bridge and is the perfect summertime stroll 🫶🏻
Today on the 80th anniversary of VJ Day, we pause Today on the 80th anniversary of VJ Day, we pause to reflect on the sacrifices so many made, the atrocities of war, the suffering of so many in the Far East and the scars that were left on both sides. 

We pray for World Peace, in the continued hope that an amicable solution can be reached to put an end to today’s current conflicts. Let today be a reminder of the human cost of warfare and the devastation it leaves behind. 

At 11.50 am today, Pershore & District Branch of the Royal British Legion will lay a wreath at our town War Memorial here in the Abbey before we observe the National 2 minute silence at 12 noon. 

Please join us in also offering the @thechurchofengland prayer for this occasion 🙏🏻🌏 🕊️
