Service as usual:  The Whitewater Benefice is in vacancy. Rev Canon Marion de Quidt has retired after 10 years of service in Whitewater Benefice. We are now in the period before a new parish priest arrives.

The churches of Heckfield, Mattingley and Rotherwick will continue to be served by Rev Helen Sherlock. Hook will be served by visiting priests.

A church is first a community of people, second the building. Church is a Kingdom space, a relational space where people come together in common-unity to worship, support one another to grow in faith, and to support the wider community.

Sunday Services:  In Hook, we have two services every week, at 10am and 6pm. In the Benefice, a weekly service at 8.30am, which moves around the 4 churches. In HMR, we will be meet every week at 11am in Rotherwick for a variety of forms of worship.  We also have a service of Matins at 11am on the third Sunday each month in Mattingley, and 6.30pm Rotherwick Evensong on the second Sunday.

Comming up:  On Remembrance Sunday we have a lot of services across the benefice - click here for details.  This time of year is always busy, check out the Calendar for further information.   Look out for: Messy Church on 21st Nov at St John's, aimed at those under 11, come and have some messy fun & tea; and on 23rd November, stir up Sunday, the Christmas Cake, make, take, bake at St John's - please book in advance, so we can have all the ingedients bought and measured out for you to make your cakes!
