Losing someone we love is one of the hardest things any of us face. The weeks and months that follow can feel long and lonely. At The Good Shepherd, we want you to know that you are not alone.
On Sunday 1st November at 7pm, we will hold our annual Memorial Service in church. It is for the families and friends of those who have died and whose funerals took place at The Good Shepherd over the past year.
This will be a quiet, gentle evening. A chance to pause, to remember, and reflect. A time to give thanks for the lives of those who are no longer with us. There will be time for reflection, for prayer, and for music, and a moment to remember each person by name.
Many people find it comforting to spend this time alongside others who understand what they are going through. You may find that a shared smile, a kind word or a cup of tea afterwards means more than you expect. You are welcome to come as you are, and to take part in whatever way feels right for you.
Would you like a loved one to be remembered?
If there is someone whose name you would like included in the service, please let us know. We would be honoured to remember them with you.
All are welcome, whether or not you attended a funeral with us, and whether you come alone or with family and friends. We would love to see you there.

Do you enjoy being outdoors and getting a bit of fresh air? Would you like to help look after a shared space that the whole community can enjoy? If so, The Good Shepherd’s Ewe Grow Gardening Group would love you to join us.
We meet on Friday mornings from 9.30am, and everyone is welcome.
Helping Care for Our Church Grounds
Each week, we work together to care for the church grounds and keep them looking neat, welcoming, and well‑loved. There are plenty of simple jobs to do, including:
- Weeding
- Mowing
- Litter picking
- General tidying
- Making the grounds look more colourful and inviting
You don’t need gardening experience. You just need a willingness to help and enjoy working alongside others.
Sharing Ideas and Vision
We’re also keen to welcome people who like to dream and plan. If you have ideas about how we could use our church grounds to create a beautiful and useful space for the local community and the church, we would love to hear from you.
Whether your ideas are big or small, your input can help shape the future of this shared space.
Everyone Welcome
You don’t have to come every week, and you don’t need special tools. Just wear clothes you don’t mind getting muddy and come ready to join in. The group is friendly, relaxed, and supportive.
