BARKWITH GROUP OF PARISHES


In the Church of England, unlike the Free Churches, there has to be a priest to hold certain

services and to keep the congregation together.   The Barkwith Group (the old parishes of

East Barkwith, West Barkwith, Sixhills, Hainton, South Willingham, East and West Torrington)

has not had its own priest-in-charge for many years with its Lay Reader Mary Jordan acting as de 

facto vicar and first the Rev'd Charles Patrick and then the Rev'd David Post giving us a great deal

of help.   Now the Rev'd Fr. Chris Hewitt SCP, Rector of the Walesby Group and also our Rural 

Dean, will be our priest-in-charge and the Group is delighted to welcome him.   This will begin a

new chapter in the history of our group.


We are sorry that St Martin's South Willingham, All Saints Sixhills, St Mary's Hainton, St Michael

East Torrington remain closed.   The Covid-19 regulations for opening churches (and other public

places) are so complex and labour intensive that for the time being we cannot open.   This is the first

time for many years that the Church has been shut and we find this hard.


Please be aware that face masks must be worn in all Churches.   Hand sanitizer will be available for 

use upon entering and exiting the Church.   Social distancing must be maintained and Contact numbers will be taken for "Track and Trace".   At the moment, sadly, there will be no hymns sung!   We look forward to welcoming you all back!
