Welcome to Hemyock, Anonymous Wednesday, November 05 2025 @ 04:16 am UTC
This Sunday is recognised as Rogationtide when thanks are given for land and various aspects of our community The 11.15am service at the Parish church will include processing around the outside of the church where short readings will be given, a prayer said and a hymn sung at various stopping points. Do join us.
Just a reminder that the council is hosting the 'Annual Parish Meeting' in the Parish Hall at 7pm Thursday 15th May.
There was warm applause from the large congregation at the service held at the parish church for St George's Day when 9 Scouts were presented with The Chief Scouts Gold Award and 11 Cubs the Silver Award.
The Gold Award of a certificate and blue and gold uniform badge is the top award for Scouts showing that they are creative, fit, learning about the world and their communities, are taking part in outdoor adventures and have understood the Scout Promise.
Julie Betteridge, Cub Scout leader, was recently awarded the Chief Scout Commendation for services to Scouting.
For many years Hemyock youth uniformed groups have travelled to Tiverton for the District St George's Day Parade and Service but this years they have decided to hold this very special service at St Mary's.
The parade of Scouts, Cubs and Brownies will be leaving the Parish Hall at 11am this coming Sunday. Please support our young people and their leaders by joining them at the church for the 11.15am service. All are welcome especially families and those who have been a past member whether in Hemyock or elsewhere.
Are you an early riser who is looking forward to celebrating Easter? If so the 7am joint Sunrise service is for you. An informal service at Gray's Lane followed by breakfast begins Easter Sunday.
At 11.15am a service of Holy Communion will take place at St Mary's Church

St Mary's Church has been overwhelmed by the response to its appeal for donations to the local foodbank.
Unfortunately a number of items have been out of date and will need to be destroyed as the foodbank will not permit these to be distributed. If you would check the date on any contribution we would be grateful
Thank you for your continuing support
