Hockering

Dear friends,

In 2019 Fiona and I hosted a Maundy Thursday Supper at ASM, which seemed to go well. However for obvious reasons we were unable to do it in 2020-2022, so we are planning it again this year.

It will be at All Saints Mattishall on Maundy Thursday (April 6^th) at 6pm and is an informal communion service with a light supper (soup, salad, cheese and ham) and set of meditative readings as we reflect on the Last Supper.

Fiona will be catering, so will be grateful to know if you are hoping to come. Please contact her at fmccaghrey@hotmail.com by 9am Wednesday 5^th April, giving her any dietary requirements. We will be over-catering, so don’t worry if you haven’t signed up, but if you think you are likely to come please do let her know so we can get the amounts right.

If you like to know roughly what it will look like before you come, then please see  the schedule for 2019 that Mark sent round by email. The readings and songs will be different this year, but the general format will be the same.

With every blessing,

Mark

Two documents about All Saints, Welborne, have been uploaded to this website that may interest you. One is a leaflet from 2015 giving details about the church building at that time (before the Fawlty Towers project, which provided a servery and loo) and a booklet, which gives details of the inscriptions in both the church building itself and on the memorials in the churchyard.

Please click on the links above to see the items.

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.
