‘Creativity Fun and worship combine at St Etheldreda’s this Sunday. From 10.00 we’ll be turning the harvest of fruit and veg into extravagant and colourful creatures – at 10.45 we break for tea and cake, and then re-gather for our Harvest festival worship at the usual time of 11.00.  Expect your favourite harvest hymns and a presentation of harvest gifts. Joy, worship and creativity for all ages – but children especially in mind.’ Rev’d Guy Edwards

Please bring donations of dried or tinned food for the foodbanks in Banbury to the Church, on or before Sunday.

3Hs Gardening Club Annual Produce Show – Saturday 17th August

This year’s 3Hs Gardening Club members’ produce show will take place at Hornton Sports Pavilion on Saturday 17th August. Produce grown in members gardens and cookery and preserves prepared by them will be displayed in competition for ten cups and shields. These trophies have been traditionally presented over the many years of the gardening club and bear the names of many members past.  

Our gardens seem to have ridden out the storm of the terrible spring we had and are producing some fine specimens now that summer has finally arrived, so we’re hopeful of a bountiful show.

If you intend to enter any of the sections you will need to stage them between 09.15 and 11.15 after which judging will take place, and at 2.30pm the hall will be open to all and the presentation of prizes will take place.

The children’s section is open to all children up to the age of 16 and this year the entry will be the best 2 decorated cup-cakes.

Come along and enjoy this occasion and maybe consider joining and taking part next summer?
