Junior Church All Saints is delighted with the Junior Church which is open to all children and young people from across the AVMC. It meets once a month on the third Sunday of the month tying in with the monthly 'Together @ Ten' service. It currently caters for young people between the ages of 4 and 14. Some time is spent in the Church service, some work is undertaken at the back of the Church and sometimes the youngsters are taken out to the Village Hall opposite for fun activities, supervised by our Leaders, Rebecca and Richard Remington. Everyone joins back together in the Church for the end of the Service and for refreshments afterwards, which are served at the back of the Church.
Breakfast Fare
This is run by the Church on the second Saturday each month in the Village Hall with a small selection of stalls and a range of freshly cooked delicious breakfast items. It provides both a very popular village meeting point and vital fund raising for the Church. Breakfast Fare runs from 8.30 - 11.30 am (last orders: 11.00am). All are welcome!
Contact details for booking a stall, pre-ordering breakfast or further details: David Knight (01297 34407).

Friends of All Saints' Church
Friends provide a means by which people near and far can keep in touch and support the life of the Parish Church of All Saints'. They operate under the guidance of the PCC with the objective of preserving the fabric of the building and enriching the life of All Saints' Church for present and future generations. They have been highly successful in raising funds by collecting annual subscriptions and organising a range of social events which in the recent past have included a Burns Night, Orchestral Concert and Village Quiz. Further details available from the Churchwardens. If you are not already a Friend, please do consider joining!
Church Nave Restoration Project
Following the wonderful success of last year’s Chancel Restoration, All Saints’ PCC is about to embark on a new project restoring the Nave. Fortunately this is not on the same scale as the work needed on the Chancel but is necessary to undertake now before serious deterioration occurs to our much loved church.
Local builders, Tim Bucknall Partnership, will be undertaking the work again which, as last year, will commence with some external repairs before moving inside to refurbish some of the Nave’s plasterwork. Fund raising events are taking place again and the Churchwardens would be grateful to receive any ideas, offers of help or donations. Again as last year, it is hoped that all work will be completed by Christmas.
