What a wonderful afternoon we have had here at #pershoreabbey 🥰

Today the Worcester #mothersunion Diocesan Festival was held in our beautiful ancient Abbey Church, including the commissioning of the President and trustees for the new triennium 2022 to 2024.

Led by Bishop John, we were delighted to be joined by the Anglican Bishops of Morogoro and Peru, who will be attending the Lambeth Conference.

We share with you a few snapshots from today taken by our lovely Churchwarden Sam 🙌🏻 @cofe.worcester

Yesterday morning we took our #sundaypraise service out into the open air in our new #biodiversity garden at #pershoreabbey where the wildflowers are slowly blooming amongst the grass.

What a difference a few days make to the weather but we are grateful for the recent rainfall to aid our gardens and wildlife 🙏🏻

Today let’s give thanks for the #rain we have received overnight to aid our flowers around #pershoreabbey and #standrewsparishcentre as well as all the trees and crops that desperately needed it 🙏🏻💦. It’s a relief as our water butts were almost empty.

We are so fortunate to have this after such a hot dry spell. There are many countries who go for long, long periods without rain and have to travel miles for water so today, let’s keep them in our prayers 🙏🏻

Please if you live or have a business in Bridge Street and High Street can you display any Union flag bunting that you have this Friday 22nd July 2022. 🇬🇧

Pershore is welcoming the Queen’s Baton Relay on its way to Birmingham for the Commonwealth Games.

It is anticipated the Baton will arrive in Pershore at 2.31pm. Starting from the residential area on Bridge Street, four Batonbearers will take it in turns to carry the Baton up the High Street to the junction with Cherry Orchard arriving there at 2.41pm.

There will be activities to enjoy from midday with the chance to meet Pershore Plum Festival mascots Prunella and Eggbert as well as this year’s Plum Royalty, along with face painting and samba drumming.

Road closures will be in place along the routes while the Baton is making its way through Pershore. Bridge Street up to the Cherry Orchard junction on the High Street will be closed for a maximum of 20 minutes between 2pm and 3.30pm.

All roadside parking will be suspended on the High Street from Broad Street to the Cherry Orchard junction from 1.30pm up to 3.30pm. There will also be delays on the B4084 by Pershore College and the Pensham Hill Junction as traffic control measures will be in place to allow the Baton relay convoy to depart Pershore College and enter the road closure area.

Although the Baton relay organisers are confident they will arrive at the advertised times, they can be anywhere from 30 minutes early to up to one hour late. This could affect relay and road closure timings.

We really hope as many people as possible will come to watch this event, cheer on the Batonbearers and take part in this unique event.

On Sunday, we held our Foodbank Praise service in St Mary’s Church, Wick. This was led by Peter Stansbie and here is a recording of his address. In attendance were many volunteers from #pershorefoodbank

You may find this hard to believe but sometimes #pershoreabi is a cross little bear and gets very frustrated with things. So we like to do crafts as they are very calming.

Currently Abi is trying out knitting and there’s a lovely group called #knitandnatter that meets at #pershorelibrary each Tuesday from 4.30pm. It is open to all ages and skill levels from beginners upwards. There is equipment available to get you started if you don’t have your own and patterns available in a variety of languages.

It’s not just restricted to knitting either if you prefer to #crochet instead. So do pop along if you fancy advancing or learning a new skill in great company 🥰

We have a lone poppy in our new #biodiversity garden in the Abbey Grounds ❤️. A few wildflowers are slowly popping up amongst the long grass.

It’s been so closely mowed for many years that it’s going to take a little time but this is a great start.

Today on this 40th Anniversary of the end of the Falkland Islands Conflict, a short service of Remembrance and Commemoration was held in Pershore Abbey led by Canon Claire Lording with Members of the Pershore & District Branches of the Royal British Legion and Royal Naval Association.

At the beginning of the service, a wreath was laid on the War Memorial by Roger Sainsbury, Falkland Conflict Naval Veteran.

Speaking after the service, Canon Lording said

“I found this simple Commemoration deeply moving, more so as a wreath was laid by a Veteran who was on active Naval service during the conflict.

Today is a day of both Remembrance and Reflection as we pause to contemplate the suffering of so many due to political aggression. We remember in our prayers all those living with both mental and physical scars of War and the families of those who lost their lives thousands of miles from their loved ones.”

Elsewhere in the town, wreaths were laid on the Cross of Sacrifice in Pershore Cemetery and at Pershore Commemorative Garden. A poignant tribute has been created at St Andrew’s with the Weeping Window of Poppies which will remain on display until Armed Forces Day.

This month's resource to share with families with young children is based on “The Sneetches” by Dr Seuss and explores the theme of humility. Do pass it on to anyone who might find it useful.

Diocese of Worcester @CofEWorcester·

Please pray with Abberley for a just peace in Ukraine and for those grieving and displaced by war. As we approach a vacancy, we thank God for already inhabiting our future, for those ministers already offering to help, and for the faithfulness or own ordained and lay leaders.
