Council decided to renew the Parish Plan, we wanted to involve residents, both in the drafting of the Plan itself and in the consultation exercise that would underpin its proposals. To this end we asked for volunteers to form a Steering Group and received a heartening response from people in each of the three communities within the parish. Whilst other residents have been involved at various stages, we are particularly grateful to the nine volunteers who undertook the survey and who then analysed the results and drafted the Plan as you see it on the following pages. Our thanks go to: Catherine Bamforth, Paddy Bowring, James Cohen, Mandy Collings, John Dolphin (Vice-Chair), Catherine Hartz, Sarah Hunt,

  • Beenham Woolhampton Midgham
    July 2019 Beenham Midgham Woolhampton Aldermaston and Woolhampton Benefice There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven:Ecc.3:1 Dear Friends By the time you read this, most of you will already know that my ministry will be continuing in another place and that my final service amongst you will be on 7 July, 5.30, at St Mary’s, Beenham. If it’s not too short notice and you are free, it would be lovely to see you there! My association with this benefice pre-dates its coming together in 2005; as far back as the early 90s I started attending the Aldermaston, Brimpton and Wasing churches so my young daughter could attend Sunday School. In the way of churches, I was soon on the Aldermaston PCC as Treasurer and in the York Nativity Play as First Maid! Despite living in Baughurst, I always felt part of the Aldermaston community, made good friends and attended many events, both in the village and connected with church. Over the years, I came to feel that I wanted to serve God in additional ways, but nothing seemed clear. Revd Des Foote, who arrived following the formation of this new, improved benefice, asked if I would consider Authorisation to Preach in 2008. However, not content with that, he later asked if I thought God wanted me to investigate a call to Ordination. As I’ve said previously, there didn’t seem to be a good reason to say No! I then embarked on the most amazing period of my life which culminated in being Ordained for Local Ministry in 2015 and a new role amongst you.
