Rev David Payne recorded our service for the Fourth Sunday after Trinity in the Churchyard at Pulloxhill and was accompanied by beautiful bird song!
At home in the Vicarage, Jo Payne reads from the Bible and leads our Intercessions. Music is from the singers and musicians of St Martins in the Field and the Royal School of Church Music.

Can you help Silsoe PCC?
The cleaning rota for Silsoe Church has fallen by the wayside during the pandemic and Silsoe PCC. Now the Church being used for services and is likely to be open more Silsoe PCC is looking to put together a cleaning rota for Silsoe Church and for a volunteer to manage the operation and the rota.
Some of those involved before the pandemic are no longer able to help or have left the area or are not now available during the week so Silsoe PCC thought it best to start from scratch. The hope is to create teams of at least 2 people to dust the pews and hoover the floor either on a Wednesday or a Thursday at a time convenient to the team.
If you are interested in joining this rota (or organising it) please would you contact Simon Stranks on simon.stranks@3churches.uk
Thank you
