Steggles Dear Friends, School’s out - and has been for a couple of weeks now! Although this year the children have had a very disrupted time, with school effectively being ‘out’ for the last few months and only back ‘in’ the last two weeks. Of course, this year, it also seems likely that more people will be ‘stay-cationing’ than will be jet- ting off to foreign parts for their holiday. As far as spiritual refreshment through our churches is concerned, things remain very different from usual – all four have had to remain closed so far for people to meet together for worship. However, three have now opened for individual prayer; St James’s Cardington and St Peter’s Rushbury are open by appointment and St Andrew’s Hope Bowdler is offering two hours every Wednesday (10:00-11:00am and 7:00-8:00pm) when the church will be open and available to in- dividuals and small family groups for private prayer. St Edith’s at Eaton-under-Heywood has had to delay any opening at all for a while because of repair work on one of the windows, but the PCC is looking to some way of opening up for prayer soon after that is complete. The question of reopening for services again remains under discussion and changes to the cur- rent situation will be shared as soon as they seem feasible in each church’s particular circum- stances. It will probably be a while yet before our established pattern of services can be re- sumed. We continue to publish a weekly reflection on the Sunday readings, with some information about services available locally and nationally and to post some of this on the Benefice Facebook page and through the online Honeypot too. It is also shared by email with the PCC members and other contacts. If you would like to receive this email too, please contact your PCC secretary, details listed elsewhere in the Honeypot, to be added to the contact list. We look forward to the time when we can meet and worship together, With my love and blessings, Sue 1 This month’s copy should be with the editor by Monday August 10th Alterations to contact details on the inside cover, or the two Church information sections, need to be with the editorial team before the first day of each month. From the village notice board … Cardington Parish Council Update In line with the Covid 19 restrictions, unless urgent decisions are required, the Parish Council do not have to hold a meeting. Therefore the July meeting was cancelled. The Parish Council are pleased to report that Shropshire Council have started to clear gullies, ditches and undertake other work to improve the drainage around the Parish and so avoid repetitive flash flood- ing and resultant damage to roads. The Parish Council continue to consider planning applications in the Parish and comment accordingly. As you are aware the Parish Council were issuing the "Smartwater packs" before the Covid19 restrictions were in place. Packs are still available for those properties who have not yet collected them. The collec- tion point will be publicised as soon as restrictions allow. The next meeting of Cardington Parish Council is planned for Tuesday 1st September to be held in the Village Hall commencing at 8pm and it is hoped that restrictions are lifted to allow this to go ahead. Residents who have any concerns about matters in the Parish, or wish to raise any issues at future meet- ings are welcome to contact the Clerk, Jennie Griffiths Tel 01694 751326 Email [email protected] http://www.cardingtonparishcouncilshropshire.co.uk Cardington Parish Council Please
