With regular in-person worship now reestablished at 10:30 am on Sunday morning, our Broadcast Holy Communion services have come to an end. We continue to provide a shorter worship from home service lasting 15 minutes that includes readings, a reflection, prayers and a hymn, for all those who are unable to make it to church in person.
Oh dear, so many deaths of such key people. The Duke of Edinburgh, our own lovely Pam Rix, and now our much loved former bishop, Bishop Bob. He will be remembered with much affection in the diocese, not least for his unswerving support of the ordination of women.
So sad to hear of the passing of Pam Rix. She was such a special lady. RIP
So so said to hear that Pam has passed away ( or as some would say.crossed the bar) RIP PAM
Please remember in your prayers ,George phillips, whose wife passed away a year this month, who is now very unwell in hospital. Thank you.
# **Bell to be tolled for HRH Prince Philip on Saturday 2.30-2.50pm prior to his funeral at St Georges Chapel Windsor**
Having checked the safety of the bells, our tower captain Mike Slater will toll the tenor bell for 20 minutes from 2.30-2.50 pm prior to the funeral as a mark of respect. All are encouraged to hold a minute's silence at 3.00pm as the funeral begins.
The church continues to hold the Queen and her family in our prayers as they mourn the loss of a much-loved husband, father and grandfather and to give thanks for everything that Prince Philip contributed to the life of the nation over so many years of service.Lincoln Diocese mourns the Rt Revd Robert (Bob) Hardy CBE

Thank you.Thank you to Martin, Kevin, Judy, Kim, Lynne, Liz and Christine for their help in decorating the churchyard trees, the Easter garden and the church today. They all look fabulous. Thank you to the schools, Holbeach Hospital, and the many families and individuals who provided all the decorations. They all came pouring in, in the end. Do join us tomorrow in the churchyard at 9.00 or the church at 10.30.
Sorry we couldn’t make it down and won’t tomorrow either... 2 very spotty children 😩
Didn't realise you were doing it today otherwise we would have helped. Had a look early and it looks amazing.
Looks lovely was so nice to be able to join in the Easter service in church this morning Happy Easter to you all 🐣🐣🐣❤️
Happy Easter, Alleluia, Christ is risen, He is risen indeed. Alleluia!
For anyone who is not able to attend church in person at either of our services for Easter Sunday (9:00 am in the churchyard or 10:30 am in church) then please do take part in our final broadcast service for Holy Week which was filmed in The Vicarage Garden. You may want to have a candle to hand to light at the beginning of the service.
Our final Compline for Holy Week reflects on Jesus death on the cross and resurrection.
Our Compline service for today, Maundy Thursday, explores Forgiveness, Hope and Family.
Thank you to whoever has already started to decorate the tree in the church yard. It is not too late to bring your decorations along on Saturday morning at 10.00 when we will hang all the rest of them. Don't forget your contribution to the Easter garden as well.
Todays Compline explores Disloyalty, Powerlessness and Torture from the One Friday story.
During Holy Week we will be providing a daily 20 minute Compline Service. The five individual services will be available from Monday to Friday from 6 pm each day so that you can join at any time during the evening. The services will be based around the One Friday Pictures and Gospel readings with reflections, prayers and hymns sung by St Martin’s Voices.
Thank you to the All Saints team for tonight's compline,
Today's service includes a dramatised reading of the Passion Gospel as we start our Holy Week journey.
Loved the fact you used images from the outdoor parts of the 2019 service
Yes it was very cleverly put together. Really enjoyed the service thank you everyone.
The Easter garden is ready for decorating next Saturday. There is a tray of small glass jars if you'd like to take one and bring it back on Saturday 3rd April with a few small flowers from your garden.
Nicely planted tree 😁
Though I love the sand version I decided not to use it this year. It will be so much easier to clean this away.
Details of all the events & services for Holy Week & Easter have been updated on the Website. As the Church has now reopened for worship, many of our usual services will still take place. There will also be online worship and a daily Compline service. Please take a few moments to visit the website so you can plan to join us, you will be made most welcome.
Easter & Holy Week 2021 – All Saints Church Holbeach
allsaintsholbeach.org.uk
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we are only able to have a limited number of services this year for Holy Week and Easter. These will have to adhere to strict social distancing guidelines and face coveri...We held our minutes silence in our service on Sunday, but here is a prayer for you all to use today if you would like to.It has been one year since the first UK lockdown.
Join us and millions of others in prayer and reflection. 🙏🏻
As we return to Church this Sunday, our Sunday Worship & Holy Communion will be at 10:30 am. If you are unable to be in church in person, we are still providing a broadcast service so you can continue to worship from home.
It was so lovely to be back with everyone. Barry was inspired - especially his exit music. Certainly blew the cobwebs away. Julie was a warm and gentle president and Rosamund's sermon absolutely hit the spot. Thank you to Jackie for the prayers and Michael for reading and leading the psalm. So glad to see so many looking so well. Take care everyone. Blessings Sall xxx

The Stations of the Cross have formed part of Christian devotion for many centuries because they offer a particularly vivid way of following in the steps of Jesus on the way to the Cross.# A year ago, on the 22nd March, which happened to be Mothering Sunday, All Saints Church was closed for public worship, along with all other churches in the country, prior to the announcement of full lockdown the following day.
# This Sunday 21st March, the 5th Sunday in Lent, also known as Passion Sunday, we will re-open after our third lockdown, hopefully permanently this time.
# Please join us at 10.30 am for a celebration of Holy Communion. All our Covid secure arrangements are still in place and we still can't sing, and communion will be in one kind only (bread, no wine) but we will have Barry on the organ and we will be able to worship in each other's company again.
# I look forward to seeing many of you once more.
A special broadcast service for Mothering Sunday is now available online. The service is fully captioned, but if you would like a copy of the Order of Service, reflection or readings, these are all available to download from our website at allsaintsholbeach.org.uk/service-pew-sheets-notices/
Lovely Service, and the captions were so much easier to read.
Thank you
