Summer has officially arrived and it's going to be very hot here in the North of France over the next few days. Drink plenty of water, and if you have elderly neighbours or friends, maybe check on them too.

The panel commemorating some of those who have lost their lives at the border has been installed in Canterbury Cathedral this week, and Bradon will be there too. This will give visitors a chance to read the names, reflect and pray for them and their loved ones. We say their names so that we do not forget them, and the tragedy that continues to unfold. You can see more details on the Diocesan website.

Services during the summer
|
Services continue every Sunday throughout the summer. We are grateful to the Reverend Elisabeth Dean, who will be leading services every Sunday except for the first Sunday of the month.
On the first Sunday, there will be a service of Morning Prayer led by one of our Christ Church Lille Congregational Worship Leaders.
