The Church at Stanton Drew is dedicated to Mary, under one of her other names – St Mary the Virgin – so on Sunday 16 we will worship together and celebrate this dedication, known as a Patronal Festival as Mary is the spiritual patron of the church.

Our Gospel reading is Matthew’s telling of Jesus feeding a multitude with five loaves and two fishes. This acts as the entry point into an exploration of the Lord’s Prayer.
