1 week to go until Rev Ruth Gray's induction service. Anticipation is building at St Helen's and we are all very much looking forward to the future with Ruth.

We are very pleased to announce that Rev Ruth Gray has been invited to become the new incumbent at St Helen's Church.

Rev Gray is currently Assistant Curate at St Thomas's Church in Stockton Heath and is very much looking forward to taking up her new appointment.

Details of Ruth's induction and start date will follow in due course.

We ask God's blessing on Ruth as she concludes her duties at St Thomas's and begins planning for the transition from Curate to vicar.

It has come to our attention that there are a number of posts by a local resident complaining about the church bells being rung on a Sunday morning.

Just to clarify, the church bells are rung on a Sunday for approximately 15-20 minutes before our 9:15am service. This has been the case since 2019, when the service was slightly later, at 9:30am. Bells have been rung at St Helen's church for over 100 years.

Occasionally, the church hosts other bellringers from across the country, when the bells will be rung during the afternoon or evening.

At no time are the bells rung at 8am.

Should our neighbours wish to meet to discuss the bell ringing, we are always open to a civil discussion. Please see our noticeboards or website for contact details for our Churchwardens, who are the people to speak to during our current vacancy.
