It was a great news story, based on a wonderful project led by Guiting Power resident, Rick Senley. Over the last year and a half, Rick has spent time in the village taking photos of residents and scenes, and has created a wonderful set of images, entitled “A Year in Lockdown”. His website (https://ricksenley.wixsite.com/ayearinlockdowngui-1) describes the project: Rick “spent the last year photographing villagers - from the newborns to a 100 year- old and all ages in between, joined by a tortoise, a duck and several bees.” The photographs are stunning and express something that we have seen in all of our villages through this time – community connections, care for our neighbours and the beauty of creation. As we look hopefully forwards, there is a lot to give thanks for, even in this very difficult time that we are living through. We are encouraging a season of thankfulness as we move into the coming weeks. Who are you especially grateful for over the last year? Who has made a difference to you? Who would you like to say thank you to, for their support, humour, phone calls, meals,…? Perhaps you might even find an opportunity to say a direct thank you to them? Rick’s photos will be on show in Guiting Power Church towards the end of July, for you to visit and enjoy, and there will be a book to follow too! Following Catherine’s ordination as a priest on Saturday 26 June, we are planning a Benefice celebration on Sunday 4th July, which will include Catherine celebrating communion for the first time. We are hoping to have refreshments available at Lower Slaughter Church from 4pm, and then a service at 6pm. Do pop in for a bit, or stay for the whole time! With love and prayers, Katrina, Sue and Catherine With the glorious weather we’ve been enjoying and all the progress we’re making on our road map towards opening up the country again, I’m really looking forward to summer! I can’t wait to be able to see people face to face around our wonderful benefice and take time to enjoy the beauty of God’s creation. Traditionally in church life, Embers cards are sent in the lead up to ordinations. Worded asking for prayers for those being ordained, I’d love to share mine with you all (see below). On June 26th I will be ordained Priest, and I’d like to thank you all for all of your encouragement and prayers as we look forward to the happy day. Catherine x DIARY DATES … We have two further Annual Parochial Church Meetings to come: - in Upper Slaughter, at 6pm on Monday 26 th July, in the church - in Naunton, at 7pm on Wednesday 28 th July, in the church. COMMUNITY MINISTRY … WEDDINGS “May God bless them” Anthony HUTCHISON and Alicia PARKER at Naunton on 1 May 2021 Thomas SWEET and Harriet FISHER at Temple Guiting on 22 May 2021 Keith DE LA COUR and Joy FARMER at Guiting Power on 28 May 2021 WEDDING BLESSING Jack ROBERTS and Sophie PRYCE at Upper Slaughter on 8 June 2021 FUNERALS “May God grant them light and peace” Sally FINLATOR, Funeral and Burial at Temple Guiting on 6 th December 2020 Maureen TAYLOR, Funeral and Burial at Lower Slaughter on 16 th December 2020 Mollie WATSON, Burial of Ashes at Lower Slaughter on 8 th February 2021 Janet BARBER, Funeral at Cheltenham Crematorium on 9 th February 2021 Bill HOLLOWAY, Burial of Ashes at Guiting Power on 10 th February 2021 Rene BETTERIDGE, Funeral at Lower Slaughter on 12 th February 2021 Jean CLARK, Funeral at Cheltenham Crematorium on 8 th March 2021 Edwina SAUNDERS, Burial of Ashes at Guiting Power on 22 nd April 2021 Paul MARLAND, Funeral at the Vale Crematorium on 22nd April, 2021 Winifred Elizabeth SALTER, Funeral at Upper Slaughter on 20 th May 2021 We were very sorry to hear recently that Rev’d John Fieldgate has died. John was Rector of this Benefice until 2001. He took ill with a stroke quite suddenly and passed away on 20th April. His step-son was visiting the area and passed on the news. Please do share with others who would remember him, and do remember John’s wife, Gill in your prayers. PRAYER LINES … We have set up a prayer network – a group of people who are willing to receive any requests for prayer and to pray for anyone in need. It is set up as a simple email group, co-ordinated by Jean Bird, and an email is sent to all the ‘pray-ers’ asking them to remember a particular person when there is a need. If you would like to be remembered in prayer, please contact Jean at [email protected] or Rev’d Sue Pestell on [email protected]. NEWS FROM … GUITING POWER You may recall praying for my brother-in-law, Bob Babbage, on our recent Zoom Services. On Good Friday Bob had a severe heart attack, was taken to the Bristol Heart Hospital and straight into intensive care, where he remained for 3 weeks mostly in a coma. After a few days in Intensive Care, Bob's heart stopped on three occasions. Each time he was resuscitated, the family were summoned for his farewell - he was on a heart machine, his kidneys had failed, he is Type 1 diabetic - it was assumed the end. Somehow Bob kept going, then another set-back … he developed sepsis, requiring more medication. Whilst Bob was in hospital a large number of worshippers in this Benefice and beyond set about praying for him. This was increased weekly by participants in our Zoom services, the prayer became intense. The Hospital Doctors could not understand how Bob remained alive, what was it? I believe it was the Power Of Prayer. What else could it have been, there was no reasonable explanation. Every day Bob slowly improved. After 3 weeks he came off all the life giving apparatus and a week later he was home. He continues to recover, it will be a long job, but he’s now beginning to potter about the garden. Please may I thank all you good people for your depth of prayer over a sustained period, prayer that appears to have allowed a minor miracle. According to the Medical Staff at Bristol, it was a minor miracle! Mike Edwards GARDEN OPEN SUNDAY 4th JULY 10 - 5 pm The Garden at Kirkham Farm, Upper Slaughter (GL54 2JS) is open in aid of Upper Slaughter church on Sunday 4th July from 10am to 5pm. Do come and have a relaxed walk around the garden and enjoy our amazing views. There are large herbaceous borders planted for both summer colour and all year round interest. A terrace, gravel gardens and raised veg beds surround the house. * Home-made teas and plants. * Plenty of parking and the majority of the garden is wheelchair accessible. Looking forward to seeing you. NAUNTON Naunton’s lockdown feels rather looser at last! It’s been great to enjoy being back in the church building for some live services over the last few weeks and we’re looking forward to a gradual return to the full monty (hymn singing!) whenever it is safe to do so. Hopefully the coffee shop will also re-start sometime soon. We have already re-started the monthly St. Andrew’s cinema (although we are holding it in the village hall for the time being, to be socially-distanced, rather than in the church). Plus weekly yoga and table-tennis (not combined!). There are plans for more social events if restrictions allow and we’re all looking forward to getting to know quite a few new faces in the village.

    Cotswolds Tours & Villages Cotswolds tours around local villages give a distinct air of beauty to the eye of any visitor to the area. You will often find locals waving and saying hello in the summer as they sit and watch the world go by, children play out on village greens and walkers stride through lanes and fields admiring the breath-taking scenery and views. Cotswold villages are a wonderful place to live and there are many villages which have several historical sites, making them famous landmarks, enticing people to the area. Many of the villages in the Cotswolds are dotted along the picturesque countryside, nestled on the rolling hills between magnificent market towns. Cotswolds tours regularly take visitors through the picture- perfect villages, showing them a somewhat picturesque vision of typical Cotswold life. Many villages and towns are built from the beautiful Cotswold stone which could be described as a warm honey-coloured limestone, typical of the area. Cotswold Villages – The Slaughters Upper and Lower Slaughter are two awe-inspiring villages which offer visitors a perfect Cotswold scene of honey-coloured Cotswold stone cottages that beautifully line the streets and lanes. Known as ‘The Slaughters’, the villages in Gloucestershire are close to Stow-on-the-Wold and Bourton-on- the-Water. They are twin villages where the River Eye divides them and runs through the centre of the villages and the word ‘Slaughter’ comes from the word ‘Slohtre’, an Anglo-Saxon phrase for ‘muddy place’. A street called Copse Hill Road in Lower Slaughter has been named by Google Maps as being the ‘most romantic street in England’.

  • Notes on the Village of Upper Slaughter Gloucestershire, United Kingdom
    Notes on the Village of Upper Slaughter Gloucestershire, United Kingdom provided by Bruce Slawter March 2006 The following observations about the history and points of interest regarding Upper Slaughter are based upon information gathered during a visit with my wife Suzanne to the village in August 2005. Besides getting to know the layout of this charming Cotswolds hamlet a little better, my chief interests during the visit were as follows: • Learn more about the origins of Upper Slaughter and the Slaughter Family • Determine why the Slaughter Family’s presence in the village seemed to have disappeared altogether by the mid-18th Century • Understand what may have motivated John Slaughter (the “emigrant”) to leave the village and travel to far-away Virginia in 1617 • Get an appreciation for what life was like during the acme of the Slaughter Family's tenure as lords of the manor • Become familiar with the special features of the village Hopefully the following random notes will help shed some light on several of these issues – although I am afraid that the notion of providing completely satisfying answers, without the benefit of additional data, will remain problematic. 1 Acknowledgments I would like to express my appreciation for the assistance provided by two long-standing residents of Upper Slaughter. Mr. Francis E.B. Witts, the current Lord of the Manor , graciously provided me with a copy of a the chapter on Upper Slaughter from Victoria History of Gloucestershire (shortened in these notes to simply VHG) , which was published around 1965. Mr. Tony Collett, a semi-retired local builder whose family has resided continuously in the village since the late 16 th Century, generously spent one pleasant evening after dinner explaining to me the layout of the village and his experiences growing up in Upper Slaughter during the Second World War.

  • Famous Cotswold Villages
    Famous Cotswold Villages The beautiful region of the Cotswolds spreads across 800 square miles, through Warwickshire, Oxfordshire, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire and parts of north east Somerset. Charming Cotswold villages are nestled between hills, market towns and summer meadows. If you’re planning a visit or a weekend in the Cotswolds, then you will not be surprised that the area has been named as the second largest area of outstanding natural beauty in England and Wales. The Cotswolds is not only famous for being unspoilt and beautiful, it was also well-known for being one of the largest contributors to the European wool trade. Before the Industrial Revolution, the Cotswolds was covered in sheep and farmers would take their flocks to weekly markets in the Cotswold market towns. The cloth trade moved to the north of England after the Industrial Revolution and the Cotswolds remained under-developed, calm and beautiful. Sheep farming has since lessened in the area, leaving the countryside free for agriculture, cows and walkers. The landscape is vast and hilly and in Spring the lanes are lined with daffodils and woodland is covered in wildflowers including bluebells. The Cotswolds is the perfect example of English countryside at its best. Villages in the Cotswolds are perfectly kept, small and wonderfully peaceful. Often hidden at the foot of a hill or down narrow lanes, Cotswold villages offer something special to visitors to the area. Snowshill Village Snowshill Village is in Gloucestershire and near to the famous Broadway village. Snowhill Manor is well-known for its late owner Charles Paget Wade, a poet and craftsman who was an enthusiastic collector of artefacts and antiques from all over the world.
