    • To remember those who suffered in the Covid-19 pandemic

    You are invited to come to St Mary’s Church at 2:30 to join in the dedication

    • 2:15 pm a quarter peal of the church bells begins
    • 2:30 pm service to dedicate the trees
    • 3:00 pm service of evensong in church
    • 4:00 pm tea in the Church Centre

The Parish of St Mary’s Shaw cum Donnington

We are a community of Christians bringing the Good News of God’s love to everyone in the parish, through Worship, Prayer, Teaching, and Serving.

We invite you to come and join us as we gather to worship God on Sundays at 10am, or in any of the other things we have going on.

Shaw cum Donnington lies to the north of Newbury in Berkshire, and St Mary’s Church is in the middle of the parish, just to the East of the A339.

You can find more about us and what is going on through this website, and do get in touch with the Church Office if there’s anything we can help you with or if you would like more information.

A word for the week

  • Trees are beautiful

    There used to be a fabulous Metasequoia Glyptostroboides at Rosemore, with its reddish bark twisting towards the sky. But they cut it down. I don’t know why.

    My favourite tree is the Acer Griseum – there’s one in our front garden where I can watch it and admire it.

    There’s something about trees. Secure in the ground, they are just there, growing imperceptibly but surely, a living and constant presence that puts human caprice to shame; beautiful in their variety and in their design, providing oxygen, food, and shelter.

    Is that what the Tree of Life is like: reliably growing where it was planted; bearing the ultimate fruit that exceeds ambrosia, nectar and elixir, because it brings life in all its fulness.

    Wasn’t there another tree too? A tree cut down, cut up, two pieces fixed together, to raise up the author of life?

    “the Son of Man [was] lifted up, that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him.”  John 3:14-15
