The service led by Rev. Mark Windsor was a spectacular celebration of Jesus resurrection, the sun clearing the low cloud just as the service ended. Back at the car park at Clench, hot tea and coffee and bacon rolls were waiting for the early-risers. None were more grateful than the group of six walkers who had set off walking from St. John’s in Pewsey at 3.50am to make the 4 mile hike up Martinsell to join those who had parked at Clench.

The service is a beautiful way to mark Easter, well worth setting an early alarm for next year!

Only two churches in the Vale of Pewsey currently have a toilet, both with nappy changing facility (St. John’s Pewsey, and St. James North Newnton) – they’re old rural churches, with lots of rules about how we modernise them, but we’re working on it!

‘Safeguarding’ is the skills and procedures required to prevent abuse and to spot signs of it. All our leaders must train and refresh that training regularly, as well as being DBS checked to confirm they have not in past been prosecuted for anything which would cause safeguarding concerns. See our full Safeguarding policy.

Whether or not he was the son of God as he claimed is the important question, where faith comes in, and is something we all have to decide for ourselves.

If you’re curious why not come along to a church service and ask some questions afterwards – we love to chat about faith – Muddy Church is a great place start, we go for a walk and have a think and chat about a spiritual topic – no singing or set words to join in with, refreshments round the fire-pit at the end. Or if you;d rather have a private chat, use the contact page to get in touch with a member of the team.

Lots of our ‘services’/events (e.g. muddy church, messy church, cafe church, holiday club, youth group, Christingle, Nativity) are either specifically for children & young people, or are designed to make ALL ages feel at home so you and they can enjoy time with other ‘noisy’ families.
