At the Balcombe village fete we ran a competition to guess the weight of the tenor bell in St Mary's belltower. Normally quoted in cwt, we wanted the answer in kg
We had about 90 guesses covering a large range of weights.
The correct answer was 462Kg and the winner, who already has their bottle of sparkling w**e, was only 2kg out.

Wheres the coolest place in the village ?
St Mary's church of course.

We open our church every day so that people have the chance for quite reflection and prayer. During the hot weather, inside our church you'll find a calm and naturally cool space. A lovely place to sit, rest, reflect, pray, and take a few moments away from the heat.

💙 A cool space.
💙 A welcoming space.

I stand with my brother in Christ, His Holiness Pope Leo XIV, in his courageous call for a kingdom of peace.

As I prepare to visit Rome later this month to meet and pray with Pope Leo, I am mindful of his call to keep our eyes open to the suffering of the world, and our gaze fixed on our crucified and risen Lord Jesus Christ – the image of the invisible God, in whose image and likeness every human being is made. In him, we recognise that we are children of the one Father and members of a single human family. Prayer is not an escape from the world, nor a turning away from injustice; rather, it is a turning towards God in the midst of it, confronting evil, seeking God’s will, and becoming instruments of transformation and peace.
