Hello from the Rector

Dear friends,

Thank you so much to all who supported the Brick and Flower Festival last weekend and the wider Big Barlborough Festival across the village. We were blessed with excellent weather and a lot of visitors including many children who really enjoyed the lego! Thank you to Janet Leverton and the flower arrangers, Rev Jo Morris who lent us the lego and Steve Palfreyman, Mike Robinson and St James Choir for the lovely music in our services. We raised £300 for the flower fund and around £500 for church funds through the raffle, refreshments and donations over the weekend.

St James Choir singing evensong at Derby Cathedral
You are cordially invited to Derby Cathedral this Sunday 20^th July at 5.15pm to hear St James Choir sing Choral Evensong. It would be lovely to have a group of us go to support the choir. Please let us know if you need a lift.

Civic Service at St James Barlborough Sunday 27th July at 3pm
Please come and support Cllr Duncan Haywood (member of the choir at Barlborough) in this special civic service as he is sworn in as Chair of Bolsover Council. This is a great honour and the first time such a civic service has been held at St James’.

The Cliff House Care Home service has been cancelled for July – this time by the care home as there is an event on.

Every blessing,

Rev Bryony

Here’s how you can help by joining the Parish Giving Scheme and giving by Direct Debit.

A regular gift really helps our cash flow, prevents the need for us to count cash and go to the bank and the scheme automatically claims Gift Aid.

It gives all of us peace of mind – you’re not worrying about your envelopes with your cash gift piling up and we’re not worrying about loss of income – it’s a win win!
