This year, Holy Trinity Old Hill celebrates a remarkable milestone: 150 years of faithful worship, witness and service in its community. For a century and a half, the church family has stood as a beacon of hope, a place where prayers have been lifted, lives have been transformed, and God’s faithfulness has been celebrated across generations. The celebrations reflect the vibrant life of the church today, including a special celebration service with a bring-and-share lunch, live music, poetry and art, Praise in the Park, a family quiz night, and a special concert which will journey through the church’s history. These events are occasions to celebrate God’s faithfulness, strengthen community bonds, and welcome others into the storythat Holy Trinity continues to write.This anniversary is an opportunity to look forward with joy and expectation. The God who has guided Holy Trinity through the past 150 years continues to lead his people today, calling them to share his love and hope with future generations.Faithful God, we thank you for 150 years of ministry at Holy Trinity Old Hill. Bless all who celebrate this anniversary, deepen their fellowship, and guide them into the future. May your love continue to shine through this church and community for many yearsto come. Amen. ...

It is now 40 days since the fourth egg was laid an

It is now 40 days since the fourth egg was laid and only 2 chicks (Pip and Jim) have hatched. Pip arrived on time at Day 33 with Jim on Day 38.

We have no way of knowing which 2 eggs these unhatched ones are but if they are eggs 2 and 3 then they are 44 and 42 days old. Normal incubation time for eggs is 32-35 days but they can apparently hatch up to 42 days as we saw with Jim.

Mr & Mrs P laid a week earlier this year than the previous 2 years. We estimate our adult birds being around 6-7 years old as they arrived in 2020 and 2021, laying their first eggs in the overflow spout in 2022.

There are a number of reasons an egg can be unsuccessful and we may never know the answer. It could be unfertilised, damaged or the embryo simply died.

Mrs P is an excellent Mother and is feeding little Jim. Hopefully both chicks will survive and keep each other warm.

The adults may discard the eggs from the nest if they have failed or they may well eat/feed the chicks the contents. They could also be broken later on as Pip and Jim become mobile.

Of course if one of the eggs is number 4 or if God bestows a miracle upon us, then we might have a late surprise but it's best to be prepared for the fact that we may only have a batch of 2 this year.

Nature is a precarious thing but we give thanks to all our team for doing their utmost to help aid it as much as possible and for the fact that we have been blessed with 2 chicks to watch 🙏🏼

In the meantime, Mr P - like most Husbands - is bracing himself for the fact that it will somehow be his fault! 🙄😂. The reality is that this is very common and we have been extremely fortunate for 8 fledglings over the past 2 years.
