We celebrate our Harvest Festival, and this will be the first service taken by Fiona. The service will be at 11am, and will be a service of readings and all the favourite hymns. After the service, there will be a buffet lunch at Churchside House, which will give everyone the chance of meeting Fiona and vice versa !

Everyone is very welcome to come to that lunch. However to help with the numbers for catering, it would be helpful if you could let Jane Edwards know if you are coming [tel: 293555]. There will be no charge for the lunch.

There will be a service of Evensong at St Michael’s. At this service, there will be the formal licensing of Fiona as Associate Priest and Chaplain to Little Gidding by the Archdeacon of Huntingdon & Wisbech.  The service takes place at 4pm, and will be followed by tea at Ferrar House, Little Gidding.

Great Gidding is holding a Christmas Cornucopia in the village hall on Saturday November 23rd from 2.00pm to 5.00pm and we’re looking for stallholders. 

Crafts are great but you don’t actually have to make things yourself – it’s a cornucopia so if you sell books, lotions, interesting gifts etc. we’d love to hear from you too. 

We only have a finite number of stalls available at £25 each (6’ table!) so hurry if you want one! 

Please call Krystyna or Paul on 01832 293 175 or email: krystynawojcik@thegiddings.org.uk for more details.
