This week is the fourth sunday of Easter 'Good Shepherd Sunday', when we focus on Jesus' words in John Chapter 10.  Annette enjoys meeting Polly Carpenter-O'Driscoll and her three beautiful lambs - Hettie, Wendy and Tiny Tim.  Polly is one of Diddington Church's Churchwardens and, as she grew up in a farming environment, is a wonderful Shepherdess showing much love and tender care for her lambs.  Thank you to Polly for reading the gospel this week.

Here is the weekly newsletter Keeping in Touch, for Good Shepherd Sunday, 25th April 2021.  We focus on Jesus' words in John Chapter 10 'I am the Good Shepherd'.

Our service is giving thanks and celebrating the life of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.  Annette is joined by the Little Paxton Parish Council Chairman, Jean Matheson, Kathy Bishop who sings so beautifully, and Stuart McCarthy who plays the organ for us.  We are truly grateful for their contributions this week, and also to Mel Eyeons and Mary Parnham who shared their memories of meeting Prince Philip.  Thanks also to the bell ringers in each of our four churches who tolled a bell 99 times in memory of the Duke.  Click on the link below for the service:
