Very joyful Parish Mass this morning when we welcomed the Bishop of Beverley who confirmed 7 of our congregation. A large congregation of around 60 people joined in the celebrations. @diocswellnott

A big thank you to our friends at St George’s Centre who placed these poppies in our church grounds. They look great and really added to the occasion of our Remembrance Service in church yesterday. It was good to welcome around 100 people to our service especially the youngsters.

Thank you once again to all those who attended the Remembrance Service at St George’s Church in Netherfield. Thank you to all the Scouts, cubs, beavers and their leaders and to Frances Newsham from Lambley for leading the service. @diocswellnott

During recent strong winds a tree was damaged in our church grounds and for safety reasons had to be cut down. Now we have the problem of all this wood to dispose of. If anyone would like to help themselves to some firewood for a wood burner please do so. #netherfield #gedling

It was great to welcome Netherfield Scouts, Cubs and Beavers to St George’s this morning for the Remembrance Sunday Service with a congregation of over 100. As always their behaviour was exemplary. Thanks also to Fr Keith Williams for the very meaningful service. @diocswellnott

@frrobertwhart It’s great to see another Society Church using the Common Worship Collects. We were beginning to think we were the only one. They are so superior to the Roman collects with their poor standard of English. Why do people use those when there is such a good alternative?

[StGeorgesNetherfield @StGNetherfield]

Mass today was for The Naming and Circumcision of Jesus.
Eternal God,
whose incarnate Son was given the Name of Saviour:
grant that we who have shared
in this sacrament of our salvation
may live out our years in the power
of the Name above all other names,
Jesus Christ our Lord.

@grosshayward @diocswellnott Now in our 13th year without a priest! Our now very small congregation try to remain in good heart but we are all now so much older as are the clergy.

[StGeorgesNetherfield @StGNetherfield]

Happy Christmas from St George’s Netherfield near Nottingham. Thank you to Fr Alan Haydock for a very meaningful mass last night. What would we do at Netherfield without our wonderful retired priests who are now all aged over 80? @diocswellnott

[StGeorgesNetherfield @StGNetherfield]

Christmas Eve Mass at 7pm. Sung Mass with Carols and Blessing of the Crib. Just like our traditional Midnight Mass at an earlier hour! Fr Alan Haydock has kindly stepped in to celebrate the Mass at the last minute.

The wonderful Collect for Advent Sunday which was said at our Parish Mass this morning. It wouldn’t feel like the beginning of Advent if one of the alternatives had been used.

[StGeorgesNetherfield @StGNetherfield]

It was great to welcome Netherfield Scouts, Cubs and Beavers and their families to our Remembrance Day Service this morning. Fantastically well behaved as usual. @diocswellnott

[StGeorgesNetherfield @StGNetherfield]

Lovely Mass of The Lord's Supper tonight. Good to see more people in church than in recent years and people staying for a prayer vigil before the Altar of Repose. @diocswellnott

[StGeorgesNetherfield @StGNetherfield]

This morning we had a Mass for St David’s Day followed by pancakes. Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday and at 10.30am there is a Sung Mass with Imposition of Ashes. @diocswellnott

[StGeorgesNetherfield @StGNetherfield]

Ten people at our Mass this morning. The most that we have had in church for a Tuesday Mass since before Covid. Great to see so many people in church midweek but please pray that more people will soon begin to come back into our church on Sundays. @diocswellnott

A very busy @York_Minster bids a fond farewell to the Bishop of Beverley, Rt Rev Glyn Webster today. @DioceseOfYork @CottrellStephen

[StGeorgesNetherfield @StGNetherfield]

Our Christmas Mass is at 7pm today. It will be our full traditional Midnight Mass with Blessing of the Crib and Carols but at an earlier time. Many of our elderly congregation including our retired priests are very grateful for the earlier time. @diocswellnott
