Loving God, as we enter this month of new life and quiet growth, help us to slow down and notice Your presence all around us.
Where we feel tired, bring us rest.
Where we feel uncertain, bring us peace.
Where we feel closed off, gently open our hearts again.
Teach us, like Mary, to trust in Your unfolding plans, even when we don’t yet understand them.
Help us to be kind in our words,
patient with ourselves, and generous in love toward others.
As the world blooms into life,
remind us that we too are still growing,
still held, and always loved.
Amen.

We’re thrilled to announce that the latest edition of the Whitton Times is here—full of heartwarming stories and exciting updates from your local parish and wider community.
In 2018 our church put together an exhibition called WW1 Whitton – a Commemoration.
Along with the Remembrance Exhibition an ‘Experience Remembrance’ for local school children and uniform groups took place. Six ‘Stations’ with displays and volunteers leading children through the themes of Conflict, Sacrifice, Freedom, Courage, Peace and Remembrance.
Commemorative Trees were planted at our schools with plaques provided by The Hunnaball Family Funeral Group and it culminated with a Sunset Service to mark the end of the WWI Whitton Remembrance with The Rt Reverend Dr Mike Harrison Bishop of Dunwich and The Worshipful The Mayor of Ipswich Cllr Jane Riley.
