Pilgrimage is a spiritual tradition found in the history of nearly every major religion and has become particularly popular in recent years. It is a journey inward as well as outward: A transformative journey to a sacred centre. For our first pilgrim walk these words seem most appropriate. We shall not cease from exploration And the end of all our exploring Will be to arrive where we started And know the place for the first time. Extract from Four Quartets ( 1943) by T.S. Eliot We meet at 1:45pm on Sunday 23rd August in the porch of St. Michael and All Angels, Letcombe Bassett and will begin our walk at 2:00pm. The pilgrim walk is a circular route (5 miles approx) from Letcombe Bassett to the Devil’s Punchbowl. The plan is to be back in time for tea and cakes at the village hall before walking the last leg up to the church for our Celtic Style Service at 6pm. (Tea and cakes will be served from 4:00pm for those who will not be joining us on the walk). Walkers please wear stout shoes and trousers are advisable! Carry some water and pack some rainwear. Don’t forget some monies for tea! Blessings, Leonora CHILDREY are able to sell them to raise money The building works to install the for their vital life-saving work kitchenette and WC in the South throughout the world.

The Church of England has produced this little booklet along similar lines to the ‘Comfort and Joy’ one that we made available for Christmas. Thanks to Deanery funding we would also like to gift this ‘Live Lent’ booklet to you. Inside you will find a short Bible passage, a reflection and a prayer for the forty days of Lent. These daily reflections follow weekly themes, each with an accompanying action, drawn from the Archbishop of Canterbury’s choice of Lent Book for 2021, ‘Living His Story’ written by Hannah Steele, which shares the extraordinary love of God in ordinary ways. Our Lent study group will be an opportunity to share our daily reflections from ‘God’s Story Our Story’ and some of us may want to supplement our reading by purchasing Hannah Steele’s book. The Prayer Stations in our churches will also follow the same theme: ‘God’s Story Our Story’ and one or two people will be sharing their stories in our Zoom services. If you would like to receive a copy of ‘God’s Story Our Story’ then please contact the Pastoral Friend for your village. If you live outside the benefice then do get in touch with myself or Andrea.

  • Letcombe Regis Community Led Plan
    LETCOMBE REGIS COMMUNITY LED PLAN 2016 A vision for the future INTRODUCTION Letcombe Regis is a beautiful downland village nestling at the foot of the Berkshire Downs in the valley of the Letcombe Brook. It was for many years a Royal Manor of the Kings of Wessex but was formally made a Regis in the reign of Richard II. The village has seen gradual expansion and development over the years but its demography has changed radically since the last Parish Plan was published in 2006. A major increase in population and age profile has resulted from the occupation of the Richmond Retirement Village since this was first opened in 2010. Furthermore, recent Government targets for the construction of new housing in Oxfordshire have resulted in the village being threatened by housing development schemes despite its location within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and with a part of it being in a Conservation Area. These factors led to Letcombe Regis Parish Council setting up a Parish Plan Steering Group to formulate a revised Parish Plan with a defined objective: “To develop guidelines for the social and economic development of the village over the next 20 years, which are acceptable to, and agreed by the village community, taking into account District and County Council requirements”. The Steering Group was set up in 2013 and a number of villagers were involved including Murray Charlton (Chairman), Jeanne Lapsley (Chairman of the Parish Council), Ken Peach, Sophie Beauchamp, Sue Hannon, Derek Maurice, Diane Ockwell and Clive Philips. THE CONSULTATION PROCESS In March 2014 the Steering Group invited each household to contribute to a new Community Plan which will help to shape the future of the village.
