At Church This Christmas
Posted in Church on Thursday December 23, 2010| Leave a Comment »
This Christmas, we’ve got something for everyone. Why not join us for our Midnight Mass on Christmas Eve, or for folk of all ages, but especially the young at heart, join us for our Crib Service. This less formal service will include four favourite carols and a retelling of the Christmas story, with the help of Lego Mary and Joseph, as children are invited to help build the Church nativity scene (children are invited to come in costume).
On Christmas Day, we have two services (Tissington and Alsop-en-le-Dale) both including Holy Communion with the service at Alsop-en-le-Dale being better suited for children.
Wishing you a peace and joy filled Christmas.
Revd Andy Larkin.

Carol Concert – Sunday 12 December
Posted in Church on Wednesday December 8, 2010| 1 Comment »
Just to let everyone know that the Carol Concert on Sunday afternoon at 3pm is still going ahead unless we have any more significant snow falls before then.
We would love to see as many people as possible in Church to enjoy the concert and to join us for warm mince pies and tea and coffee afterwards.
Over Sixties Carol Service – CANCELLED.
Posted in Church, Events, News, Societies on Tuesday December 7, 2010| Leave a Comment »
John H writes:
I’ve just been informed that the Over Sixties Group Carol Service planned for Thursday has just been cancelled.
Several of the groups have advised that they will not be coming because of the weather, and the current lack of parking space in the village due to the lying piles of snow has made continuing with the event unadvisable.
Sorry for the inconvenience caused.
Sheena Bryden
Posted in 2010, Church, People, Posts of Note on Tuesday December 7, 2010| Leave a Comment »
Many of you will know our Reader Sheena Bryden. She has ministered in our Benefice over a number of years, serving on the PCC at Parwich and with particular responsibility, in recent times, for the church family service at Tissington.
Sheena has felt for some time, that God is calling her to exercise her ministry in the Ashbourne Benefice (where she lives). The Diocese has considered this and has decided to grant her request. The date set by the Diocese for Sheena’s transfer is the end of November, which doesn’t give us time to say a proper thank you and good-bye. Therefore, we will say good-bye to Sheena during our 11am service at Parwich on January 30th. I’m sure you all join me in thanking Sheena for her ministry in the Benefice and in praying for her through this time of transition.
Revd Andy Larkin.
Sheena has become a good friend to many locally, so parwich.org would like to take this opportunity to wish her all the best for the future.

Last Weekend’s Concert
Posted in 2010, Church, Music, Posts of Note on Saturday November 20, 2010| Leave a Comment »
The concert by the Choir of St. Mary’s Church, Nottingham here in Parwich on Saturday 13th was by all accounts a great success. Certainly these two clips posted by Martin at YouTube increased my regret at having missed it, but then went a fair way to make up for that.
Also there is an excellent mp3 audio download at:
http://www.ashbournechurches.org/concert/download.htm
The concert was in aid of the Parwich Church restoration fund and for Help for Heroes.
Christmas Tree Festival
Posted in Church on Thursday November 18, 2010| Leave a Comment »
Saturday 18th December 2010 (11am-3pm) is the Church Christmas Tree Festival and Fair. It is always a lovely event with the smell of mulled wine percolating through the aisles and various goodies for sale. The trees then remain up until early New Year, really enhancing the Christmas atmosphere in the Church.
So if you would like to decorate a tree, either as a society, as a group of friends or as an individual now is your chance. There is no theme, so you can use your imagination and dress your tree as you wish. To reserve a tree please contact Martin C on 529 or Helen P on 362.
Enjoy the photos of last year’s Christmas Tree Festival.
Saturday’s Concert

A big thank you to all of you who supported the Choral Classics for Remembrance Concert in Parwich church on Saturday. The choir gave their services for nothing, the audience enjoyed some lovely village-supplied nibbles, and we raised almost £500 to go to the Help for Heroes Fund, and Parwich Church Restoration Fund

Thank you to JFS for these two photos: the first in St Peter’s Church Yard when this morning’s service moved out to the War Memorial for the two minutes silence and the Last Post.
And the second at the Legion afterwards.

St Peter’s Church’s green waste wheelie bin was put out for emptying last Thursday, but by lunchtime that day had gone missing.
If anyone has seen it, could they put it in the Church Yard (just inside the gates), or let the Church Wardens know (messages via parwich@hotmail.co.uk will be passed on).

Harvest Supper Snaps
Posted in 2010, Church, Memorial hall, Posts of Note on Friday September 24, 2010| Leave a Comment »
Thank you to JF-S for sending in these photos, which show the Harvest Supper and Auction on Monday night. The event raised £350 which will go to The Padley Centre in Derby. Click on any photo to enlarge.
Andrew’s loss is strongly felt by the Community of which he has been such an active participant. Our sympathy goes out to Rachel and their family.
His funeral is at 1-30pm on Monday 27th September in St. Peter’s Church, followed by refreshments in the Memorial Hall.
Members of the parish will be decorating the Church, so if you have any flowers or Autumn foliage (including berries) from your gardens, please bring them to the Church on Saturday or on Sunday morning and leave them in the buckets provided near the entrance. If in doubt about what to bring contact Jean C or Helen P.

The Bell is Back
Posted in 2010, Church, Posts of Note on Saturday August 28, 2010| Leave a Comment »
Our Church Bell was returned from the Loughborough Bell Foundry yesterday, newly restored with its bright red mountings (known as a headstock) and bright redclapper. The bell, which is older than the church, dating from 180was cast by a Chesterfield foundry and had not been serviced since the Church was built in the 1860’s. The bell’s condition meant that it could come crashing down at anytime, so this restoration was long overdue. You might have heard it on Friday afternoon; the sound is fuller and more resonant.
Come and hear Jonathan Marshall ring it out on Sunday at the Songs of Praise service at 10am- all welcome!
Many thanks to all of you who have supported our concerts and other fund-raising events, these have enabled us to fund the £4,000 restoration bill- and many thanks to Lynette Coyne and Don Lowndes jnr. who assisted with the fitting of the Bell.
Thank you to Ben and Martin for the photos.
This Sunday – Come along and Sing
