Welcome to the Diocese of Worcester.

Our diocesan vision is to grow as Kingdom People, sharing the good news of Jesus’ love in Worcestershire and Dudley.

Working with children, families & schools in Pershore

Sam Andrews is the Children and Families’ worker at Pershore Abbey. Her work
is funded in part thanks to a grant from the Healthier Churches Fund.

Since 2023 Sam has extended the programme of events for children and
families, which is where they get the best levels of engagement. She has
introduced a weekly ‘Little Seeds’ group in August and a Summer Activity
Morning in the school summer holidays for parents to come along to with their
children, where they can do a variety of craft activities, supported by a team
of volunteers. These have been really popular, with 30 children and their
parents attending in the course of each morning. Sam has also introduced A
Light Party event relating to John 1:5 as an alternative to Halloween.
