Holocaust Memorial Day takes place each year on 27 January and encourages remembrance in a world scarred by genocide.The Holocaust is central to the commemoration, and we remember the six million Jewish men, women and children who were murdered. 27 January marks the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi death camp.On Holocaust Memorial Day, we also commemorate the millions more people murdered through the Nazi persecution of other groups, as well as the genocides in Cambodia, Rwanda, Bosnia and Darfur. A United Nations commission of inquiry has also highlighted genocide committed in Gaza.Our world often feels fragile and vulnerable, and we cannot be complacent. Wherever it takes place, prejudice and the language of hatred must be challenged by us all.The theme for Holocaust Memorial Day 2026 is ‘Bridging Generations’. It is a reminder that the responsibility of remembrance doesn’t end with the survivors - it lives on through all of us. This theme encourages us all to engage actively with the past - to listen and to learn. By doing so, we build a bridge between memory and action, between history and hope for the future.Eternal God, we lament the millions of victims of Nazi persecution, and victims of all genocides. Help us to work for a better future today. We pray for a day when all shall be free to live in peace, unity and love. ... See MoreSee Less

Has anyone else got over-excited little bears in t Has anyone else got over-excited little bears in their household? 

The tree is up, the gifts are wrapped, wreaths are made, every day is a chocolate advent day and the smell of mince pies are drifting from the oven. In #pershoreabi's book, that equals Christmas but we are trying to explain to her that we are still in Advent and that patience is required. 

Like most little bears, patience is not always a skill-set that has been mastered so we are letting her have a sneak preview of the new @thechurchofengland #twelvejoysofchristmas book 

You can order your copy from Church House Publishing or follow online by downloading the Church of England Everyday Faith app onto your device. It will begin on Christmas Day and is a lovely way to spend a short time each day to remember the true spirit of Christmas 🕊️ 👑 ♰

Look out for Abi's wreath on our Victorian lamppost too as she made it herself to spread some festive cheer 🧸🎄

Have you been into Pershore to see our beautiful C Have you been into Pershore to see our beautiful Christmas lights yet? This year the town is looking so pretty with the new lights twinkling across the High Street.

 If you like coloured lights then do walk through the Town Hall and see the tree in their garden. You will see our Abbey bathed in Christmas gold light too and the decorations beautifulky strung around St Andrew's Garden 💡⭐💡⭐💡⭐

Christmas is a difficult period for many but we hope that light shining through the darkness can bring some comfort. 🫶🏻

You are most welcome to come and sit quietly in the Abbey or light a candle in memory of a loved one. We also have a Book of Remembrance for those who sponsor the Abbey floodlights on a special day. It costs £18 for 3 years and the book sits next to the candle burning daily in our South Transept. Full details are available in our leaflets in the Abbey or you can contact the Benefice Office for details. 🕊️
