Holy Week across the Lordsbridge Team
24th – 31st March
For details of services and events taking place across the Team for Holy Week and Easter, please see our page here. You are always welcome at any of the churches across the Team.
We were all deeply saddened by the unexpected death of Clare Bigg, Licensed Lay Minister at St Mary’s Church, Hardwick in March. Team Vicar, Rev’d Clare Coates writes: “Clare was a wonderful wife, mother and friend, always ready with a word of encouragement and support, and a big smile. She will be greatly missed by all her friends here in the Lordsbridge Team.”
Clare Bigg’s funeral will be held at St Mary’s, Comberton on Friday 5th April at 2.00pm, followed by refreshments at the Cabin, Hardwick. Everyone is welcome, but please try and share lifts where possible as parking is limited. The family have asked that attendees wear bright colours to celebrate Clare’s life.
