Welcome
The Wootton Annual Parochial Church Meeting for 2025 will take place at St Mark’s on Sunday May 11th after the 9.30am Holy Communion service (around 10.45am).
This year we shall celebrate the 80th anniversary of the end of war in Europe. Of course, for most of us, 8 May 1945 is before our lifetime. It is, therefore, difficult to appreciate the sense of relief and joy that our ancestors would have felt after the six years of war and the nervousness that proceeded the outbreak of war. There are some who do remember the celebration eighty years ago and at our Sunday Service we were privileged to hear from one of our congregation her memories of that day. This May is also a time of celebration for Christians the world over as we continue to thank God for the resurrection of His Son, our Saviour Jesus Christ. The Easter season continues for 50 days, it is not just a handful days around the bank holiday. In this period, we remember how Jesus appeared to his disciples and followers to reassure and encourage them. So, as you remember the sacrifices made by so many during the war and celebrate the end of WWII also take time to remember that Jesus made the ultimate sacrifice for you.
