The Mothers’ Union at St Mary’s invites you to come and collect a small plant for your mum from the north porch at St Mary’s. Normally flowers would be given for this purpose in the 9.30 service, this is the best we can do this year. When they’re gone, they’re gone!

As you may know, we’ve been posting regular Toast Story Time videos during lockdown, we hope you’ve been enjoying them, and thanks for your company. If you’ve missed any you can catch up at https://rossparishes.uk/toast
We’ve decided, now, to take a break for a while, until Wednesday 19th May when we’re hoping we can be back in church for a physical meeting.
More about that nearer the time. In the meantime – continue to keep safe, and we’re really looking forward to seeing you all.

For those who enjoy the weekly Toast Storytime video, here is this week’s offering from the Toast Makers at St Mary’s.

Join us on YouTube now for this morning’s service – The First Sunday of Lent
This week’s Toast Story Time film is now live. Please enjoy it and share it:
Today is Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent. A service of Choral Eucharist is about to go live from St Mary’s, Ross-on-Wye on YouTube. Please join us.
We’re asking people to take part in a small piece of fund raising throughout Lent. Each day, from Ash Wednesday and for the following 40 days, we ask you to consider ways in which you are fortunate.
Full details are here, together with the download for the booklet.


The toast makers have enjoyed producing our videos but we’ve really missed seeing all of you mums and dads ….so we’re inviting you to an informal get-together where we can chat, exchange tips and experiences, and laugh, over a cup/glass of your choice.
Screens without the stress!
We would love to see all on Wednesday evening (17th February) at 8 pm.
And don’t forget to look out for this week’s Toast Story Time, also on Wednesday at 10 am.
