Spring has sprung and April is done. We are pleased to let you know that the May edition of our Church newsletter has now been published and is available free of charge in our Churches. You can also download a copy by clicking on the image below. This month we are setting aside the days from 14 – 24 May as days of prayer under the banner of Thy Kingdom Come. Our churches will be open during the day for you to drop in for quiet prayer. There will be times when the Church is unavailable (for example, because of children’s groups), but we hope you can still find some extra time to pray during these days.

After our morning service on 19 April we held our annual meeting at Christ Church.
The parish elected Helen Shaw and Angie Price to serve as Churchwardens for the coming year. They have done a phenominal job over the last few years and it is a delight to see them continue for the coming year.
Having received the annual report and reflected on the last year, we elected Mel Rowley to serve as our Deanery Synod representative; and Sarah Resch and Peter Hodson to serve as Church Council members.

Later that same evening we held our annual meeting at St Peter’s Church.
The parish elected David Bird and David Owen to serve as Churchwardens for the coming year. They too have done a superb job over the last few years and we are happy that they are willing to continue serving God in this capacity for the coming year.
Again, the annual report was received and we reflected on the work of God over the last year. We then elected Denni Christie to serve as Deanery Synod representative; and Jonathan Brookes and David Winsor to serve as Church Council members.

Here’s to the next year serving God and the people of Mountsorrel….

Today, Rev Colin Resch was licensed as Vicar of Mountsorrel (yes, I know you all thought he was already the Vicar, but for legal and technical reasons, Mountsorrel hasn’t had a Vicar for twenty-three years). It was a day of celebration for our Church family and the whole of Mountsorrel. The Church was full with Church family and friends as we joyfully thanked God for the ministry of his people in this place.

As we journey through Lent towards Easter, you will find much to inspire and encourage you in our March Church newsletter which is now available in Church and for download from our website. Please click on the image below to view.

A very happy new year to all our Church Family with love and blessings for a great 2026 from the whole staff team here at Christ Church and St Peter’s Church Mountsorrel.

May God the Father keep you in all your days.
May God the Son shield you in all your ways.
May God the Spirit bring you healing and peace.
May God the Holy Trinity drive all darkness from you
and pour upon you blessing and light.
Amen.
