The United Benefice of
Ivinghoe with Pitstone, Slapton and Marsworth

Latest News

From Rev Tracey

The Christmas decorations have hardly been put back in the loft and here I am making arrangements for Lent and Easter; well it must be just round the corner as the shops are full of Easter eggs!

The trouble with organising rotas, whether for my team, services or for our organists; is that they are done on a quarterly basis and it seems that no sooner has one big celebration passed another one is quickly approaching. In this magazine you will find the details of Ash Wednesday service and the benefice Lent course. I do hope that you will be able to come and share in our preparations for the celebration of Easter.

February can be a dark and dismal month but on the other hand it is a month for love. Not only do we have the chance to prove our love to someone on Valentine’s Day but this year is also a leap year; so I’m expecting a rush on wedding bookings!

Of course Easter is the time to remember the wonderful and amazing love of The Son of God who showed his love for us all by giving his life for us. Now that is a love worth celebrating!

God bless
Rev Tracey
