Hockering

The annual sponsored bike ride takes place on Saturday 10th September this year. Details can be found at Bike Ride & Walk - The Norfolk Churches Trust. Please see the link for details about times, locations, etc.

Please note that this clashes with the very important Away Day for the Mattishall congregations. We do hope that people in the benefice other than from ASM will be able to support this.

Dear Friends,

I trust you are all well, and staying cool in this heat.

The school holidays begin at the end of next week. Hockering and Yaxham Primary schools will be holding services to say thank you and goodbye to their year 6 leavers.

Transitions form Primary to high school can bring about mixed emotions. Please do pray for them that they will all feel a sense of peace and readiness for the journey ahead of them. Pray also for those who will be visiting their new teachers for the first time in reception class and for their parents letting go it can be an emotional time for them too.

For those of you taking the opportunity to go on holiday or visit family or friends I hope and pray that you will be energised, refreshed and rested.

Bible readings  for Morning Prayer from Sat 16^th July – 31^st August can be downloaded from HERE. The liturgy remains in ordinary time.

With every blessing

Andrea

How To Find Us

If coming to the church from the Norwich direction, head west along the A47. As you approach Hockering, there is an angled turn off to Hockering itself. Ignore this and turn right into The Street only when you have passed Mill Lane on your left. Once on The Street, turn left and follow the road round to your right. You will see St. Michael's on your right. There is usually space to park on the side of this quiet road in front of the church itself.
If coming to the church from the Dereham direction, bear left onto an unnamed road which heads directly to the church. At this left turn you will see a white P on blue background (parking) sign) As you actually turn into the unnamed road heading to the church you can see St. Michael's in the distance.
