The March 2022 edition of Cotswold Edge, our parish newsletter, can be downloaded here.
Marshfield Benefice is a group of four Cotswold churches all of which are open daily for prayer and reflection. The four parishes are Marshfield, Cold Ashton, Tormarton and West Littleton and you are welcome at services in any of our churches. The services for this month can be seen here.
St Mary’s Marshfield is our biggest church and hosts a variety of services for all ages and stages of faith. We would love to see you at a service, whether the informal 8.30am Breakfast Church, the 10.30am main service, a traditional choral 6pm evening service, or all age Church@5pm in Marshfield Church Hall.
We love our families and young people and offer groups for them, as well as Edward Bear for toddlers and parents on a Friday 10.30-11.30am in Marshfield Chapel with our friends there.
We are a Safe and Welcome Church (silver award) and take safeguarding seriously. We are also an Eco Church (bronze award) and want to be inclusive to all.
May God grant us boldness, patience and joy as we journey with Jesus together.

A new group for anyone who’d like grow in faith alongside others starts this autumn.
The Bible Course (from the Bible Society) is a contemporary way to gain an over view of the Bible and see ‘God’s Big Story’ in context.
The group will meet on Thursday evenings 7.30-9.00pm in the Chapel (Marshfield High Street).
We’d love to see you there.

The PCC takes the safety of everyone within the church very seriously and expects that everyone will work within the church safeguarding policies.
Our safeguarding policy and principles can be found below, alongside useful contact numbers and a code of conduct for church members.
For anyone in need, we are providing a mini larder in the church porch, containing tinned and dried food.
Take what you need, no need to ask.
Those who can, please contribute when you are able and leave in-date food items in the box.
For those of you that may have missed our Sunday Zoom Services, the reflections are now available on our Resources page, alongside prayer leaflets, our monthly prayer diary, and other online resources.

There will be an increased need for foodbanks with the negative impact on people’s livelihoods caused by the Covid 19 outbreak. The homeless are still homeless, but those who were vulnerable before will be added to by those newly facing hardship. You can offer support by giving direct to the Bath Foodbank via their website.
Genesis are no longer accepting donations of food from any source other than supermarkets. They are then delivering the food parcels out to those in need, rather than have them come in to collect them. So please do continue to make food donations at your local supermarkets. Thank you.
