Holme Pierrepont with Adbolton Nottinghamshire
From January 1st 2006 the Parish of Lady Bay and the Parish of Holme Pierrepont with Adbolton were joined to form the new Benefice of Lady Bay with Holme Pierrepont and Adbolton. The Vicar of Lady Bay, the Revd Robert Breckles also became its first Rector. The two churches, All Hallows and St. Edmunds will still have their own PCCs and parish responsibilities but only the one Vicar. It is expected that working together will be developed as times goes by.
We welcome everyone to all our services.
Services are mainly those of the Church of England’s 1662 ‘Book of Common Prayer’ (BCP), although on the second Sunday of ther month, there is a Family Service, designed for families with children, which is less formal. Communion, Matins and Evensong are normally sung, with a full Choral Evensong when there is a fifth Sunday in the month. A robed choir leads the services, which are at 11.00 am and 6.30 pm. each Sunday, with extra services at Christmas and Easter.

Following a decision by the PCC, application has been made to join the Prayer Book Society. As a church which uses the Book of Common Prayer for the vast majority of its services, we felt it right to join the Society, which exists to encourage the use of the Prayer Book.

A Farewell Barbecue has been arranged for 30 June, just as Robert concludes his ministry here. It is scheduled to start at 5.30 pm for 6.00 pm. The cost will be £7.00.

The gift will be presented at the barbecue.
