Children's Spring Photo Competition
During Lent, the children within our United Benefice took part in a Spring photo competition. The pictures were carefully judged by three members of the Benefice. Each of the talented winners had their picture published in the April newsletter and received a special Easter egg. This video shows all the photographs that the children had taken. |

Happy Mothering Sunday
Please watch this joyful United Benefice Choir performance of Swingin' Samson with guest appearances by the rippling Samson (Dave) and the glamorous Delilah (Helen) produced by the very talented Seb Roberts! Enjoy! We are asking for your donations to support the work of the Blackburn Mother’s Union caravan holiday project. They own a caravan on the Lancashire coast providing holidays to families in need of a break who otherwise cannot get one. If you are able and willing, you may give via Virgin Money Giving at : Search for The Mother’s Union (Diocese of Blackburn branch) Please write “Swingin’ Samson” in the “leave a message” box. This will ensure that your donation supports the MU caravan holiday and will allow the treasurer to identify how much the United Benefice has raised. You can then specify an amount - and donate anonymously - as you wish. |
United Benefice Online Service Sunday 14th March 2021 - Mothering Sunday
 You can log in from 09:30 and the service will start at 10am. Attached are the service sheet and a Mothering Sunday activity for families and children.
We have also attached a sheet with the UB church services through to the end of June 2021 – where it shows ‘no service’ this is because we have been unable to get clergy cover for the proposed afternoon/evening services on these Sundays. Hopefully Karen will have started as our new Vicar by the end of June and so these services will be reinstated after that time. UB church services through to the end of June 2021:
