Eco Church Working Group (an opportunity)

We would like to start a steering group to work across the Benefice in caring for nature and our environment. The churches are invited to participate in a nationwide sustainability award scheme—run by the Christian conservation charity A Rocha UK to reduce their carbon footprint and care for nature. In these days of increased awareness of climate change, we are called to a deeper resolve to do all we can to protect the planet for the future of all creation.

Pet Service at Silsoe image

Whether you are bringing a current companion, remembering a past one, or simply wish to celebrate the animal kingdom, all are welcome.

We look forward to seeing you and your furry, feathered, scaly friends there

3rd October 2026 – A Celebration of Animals

This service, held on the eve of Animal Welfare Sunday, is a chance to give thanks for the joy and companionship animals bring to our lives. The service will feature two very special moments.

First, we will offer an Act of Remembrance. We know that the loss of a pet is deeply felt. During a hymn, anyone who wishes to remember a beloved pet who has passed away is invited to bring a small token of remembrance—such as a photo, a favourite toy, or a collar—to the altar as a quiet act of love and memory.

Second, there will be an opportunity to have your pet Blessed.  All well-behaved pets are welcome in the Church for a blessing. For those bringing larger animals, such as horses or donkeys or dogs who need a bit of space, one of the Vicars will come outside to the churchyard to offer blessings, ensuring everyone, great and small, is included. If you can’t bring your pet to Church, bring a photo to be blessed.

October 2026 – Confirmation Service 

Confirmation is a special service in which a person confirms the promises that were made when they were baptised. In October 2026, there will be a Deanery Confirmation service in Flitwick Church with Bishop Richard. If this is something you are interested in doing, or would like to know more, please speak to a member of the Ministry Team.
