Sunday 23rd August
A number of different ways of joining our worship are open to you on Sundays during August. Whichever you choose, we pray it will be a blessing to you and we are glad to welcome you.
In person : join us in St James’ Churchyard for a short socially distanced outdoor service at 10am. We have a small number of chairs available, so if you have a folding chair or a picnic blanket you could bring, that’s very helpful. Come ready to worship with a brolly/raincoat to hand as we never know what the weather will do on the day!
Also at 10am, our friends at Castledown FM will broadcast a prerecorded service similar to those we have enjoyed over the last few months, and this will also be available at 10am on our Facebook page, for anyone who prefers to participate in the service that way.
As usual, you can find a service sheet for the radio/fb service at this link so you can follow along with the singing at home: https://stjamesludgershall.com/service-sheets/ We continue to meet in Jesus’ Name, however we can, and are glad of your fellowship with us.
Commemorating VJ Day
Today, Saturday 15th August 2020, Rev’d Jimmy and Rev’d Peter led a short commemorative service for VJ Day at our village War Memorial. We will remember them.

Thank you!
Now our Prescription Delivery Service is closed, we wanted to do a few thank yous! Our thanks to all of our brilliant local prescription delivery volunteers and to Karen (our Town Clerk in Ludgershall) and Lynn (our Garrison Welfare Officer in Tidworth) for coordinating all of those volunteers Monday to Saturday for what has seemed like months and months. Also thank you to all of our Pharmacy staff who all worked so hard to get us all through the lockdown. And thank you to everyone who thanked us… your appreciation really helped to keep us all going! Thank you!

Sunday 2nd August
Our Sunday morning service 2nd August will be on at 10am, live here on our Facebook page or listen to thesimultaneous broadcast by our friends at Castledown FM. Our in-person service last Sunday went well, but the Government guidance has been revised again so we are taking time to decide the best way to continue to be able to worship together. We will update you as soon as there are changes. Thank you for your patience, prayers, and your fellowship here in the meantime.
You can find a service sheet at this link so you can follow along with the singing at home: https://stjamesludgershall.com/service-sheets/ As usual, we can receive your prayer requests on Sunday morning by text on 01980 221047, so feel free to get in touch.

Sunday Morning Service 26th July – St James’ Day
Our Sunday morning service will be a bit different this week, and there are a number of different ways in which you can choose to join our worship at 10am.
In celebration of our patronal festival – our ‘birthday’ – we will be having a socially distanced physical service in the church yard of St James. Being outdoors, it enables more of us to gather in the space safely. It will be a short but joyful meeting in Jesus’ Name.
Simultaneously, our friends at Castledown FM will broadcast a prerecorded service similar to those we have enjoyed over the last few months, led by Rev’d Tim and Rev’d Jimmy, and this will also be available at 10am on our Facebook page, for anyone who prefers to participate in the service that way.
As usual, you can find a service sheet for the radio/fb service at this link so you can follow along with the singing at home: https://stjamesludgershall.com/service-sheets/ We pray that these services would be a blessing to you.
