Team Talk September 2026

This month’s TeamTalk opens with Jonathan’s letter on thin places, the moments and seasons where heaven and earth feel close together, and welcomes Paul Roberts, licensed as Team Vicar at All Saints on 3rd September. The Dean of Hereford, Sarah Brown, writes on being yourself and on why the Church should hold on to proper funerals rather than handing death over to direct cremation. The “Becoming” series reaches its final part, on transformation for the sake of others, alongside news of the coming Credo course.

Elsewhere: Holy Trinity needs a Churchwarden, Treasurer, and PCC Secretary, the Hereford Food Bank Harvest appeal begins ahead of October, and St Michael’s Breinton is raising funds for urgent spire repairs. Diary dates include Choral Evensong at All Saints on 6th September, the Breinton History Group talk on Apples & People on 14th September, and the St Michael’s Harvest Supper on 16th October.
