This week, please pray for:
- those nations torn apart by war and violence – especially children facing unspeakable loss and profound emotional and physical challenges. Unite us in pursuing a world where all can thrive in your peace, mercy, and abundance.
- mothers and all who nurture us in faith and life. Gather us in your care and teach us to love as you love.
- those for whom today will be difficult and sad.
- creation that has been given to us and for all who care for it by reusing, recycling, and reducing waste. We pray that more churches will commit to becoming Eco Churches as we all work together to look after our planet and respond to the climate emergency.
- clergy housing and facilities team who support people both across the Diocese and in the diocesan office.
- those who are unwell: Anthony Bradbury, Rachel Quinlan, Sheila Blankstone.
- those who have recently died and their families: Kenneth Webster.
- those who live in Middlefield Lane, Hagley, and Hackmans Gate, Clent.

Easter at St Leonard’s: It would be lovely if you would like to place a vase or jam jar of yellow flowers in memory or a loved one in church for Easter. This doesn’t need to be a large arrangement; a small bunch of flowers will be welcome. The flowers can go into church on Saturday 4th April for our Easter service on Sunday 5th April. It would be lovely to see the church filled with dedications to loved ones. Please feel free to put a little note or write on the jar who the flowers are in memory of. You can use a jam jar or jar of any size. Any queries please contact Louise McMichael on 07827817009
Wychbury Room: We are looking for volunteers to join the team to oversee the room. Please contact Sue at the Parish Office for more details.
