I am sad to say that the church buildings in Belton and Burgh Castle are closed as they could be places of gathering where the virus could be passed on.  The Church of England took the decision to do this to stand with the government and help people keep safe.

Hope!  A word that is used in different ways at different times…..

“I hope you are feeling better….”

“I hope to be with you next time…..”

Even “let’s hope and pray”.

I wonder what you are hoping for?  Let me guess…. an end to this lockdown; the safety of your loved ones at this time; eradication of the virus; a return to “normal”.

Remembrance Sunday.

When you hear mention on the 11th November and Remembrance Day, I wonder what thoughts come to mind; what memories are evoked?

It may be the tradition of wearing your poppy each year, or watching the Armistice parade in London and the placing of the wreaths at the Cenotaph, or perhaps it is seeing the poppy ''Tommy'' work of art that was hung from the tower of All Saints Church last year to remember the centenary anniversary of the end of the First World War.
