Welcome to October and the beautiful season of Autumn. This month is notable for its Hunter’s Moon – In fact, this special moon is the first of three ‘Supermoons’ of 2025, when the moon is closest to the Earth – and seems especially bright and large in the sky. Here in our minster community, there are many places to see these incredible full moons.

Welcome to September and the beautiful season of Autumn. According to the Met Office, this summer has been the hottest in the UK since records began; so the rains we’ve had in the first few days of September have been most welcome.
New month and new service pattern.
We are delighted to share updated information for the whole of the Launde Deanery. With a special note of a late change for St. Peter’s, as Rev Martin will not be able to take the Service on 28th September. Therefore, Maxine Johnson will take an All Age Worship service that day.
