Kate (Miller) Sandford and her husband Julian Sandford (pictured on the right) are both State Trumpeters of the Household Cavalry and took part, with colleagues at the Duke of Edinburgh's funeral service at Windsor. Kate was born and brought up in Slawston and four generations of her family currently live and farm there.

There are 30,000 schools in the UK. Pray for Schools longs to see every single one of them supported by regular Christian prayer

Welcome back, please join us this summer! Services have resumed at all of the Benefice Churches:

Many people will have noticed that St Wilfrid’s Church clock sadly stopped working several weeks ago, during which time the Friends of St Wilfrid’s have been securing quotes to repair it.

You’re invited to join us on Saturday 26 June 1:30-3:30pm for a special ‘Media Maker’ event at St. Peter’s Church, Church Langton.

Summer News from Smeeton! With the Chronicle having a well deserved break for July and August, I must offer some dates for your diaries. As you may have realised, we here in Smeeton are always looking for events to bring our village together. We are also delighted to invite those of you from neighbouring villages too.

St Wilfrid's plan to resume services in church from Sunday 9 May. Services will start at 10.30am and numbers will be limited, to maintain social distancing. Your details will be taken for Track & Trace and Covid-safe measures
will be in place. We will, of course, be guided by any changes to government restrictions, so please check our website for updates: www.stwilfridskibworth.co.uk.

Now that the restrictions have started to ease, we are delighted to be able to open our village hall once again to the various classes that use our facilities. Over the past year, the hall has been fully decorated, both inside and out. It is now a bright, clean and attractive place for the classes to take place in.

   The Friends of St Wilfrid's Church Kibworth are currently looking to repair the clocks and the leaks in the roof.

Many of you, as you drive past the church, will notice that the clocks have stopped on the church tower.
