14 September 9am at St Briavels via all our lovely parish churches to St. Luke's with refreshments at St Mary & St Peter's Tidenham.
For us in Gloucestershire, funds raised are split 50:50 between the Gloucestershire Historic Churches Trust and our local churches. Ride+Stride is a nationwide event which is supported by the National Churches Trust.
In our Parish, a group will be walking from St Briavels Church (St Mary the Virgin) to St Luke’s, Tutshill, calling at St Mary Magdalene (Hewelsfield), St Michael & All Angels (Tidenham Chase) and St Mary & St Peter’s (Tidenham). This walk is about 9 miles long (unless we get lost!) starting at St Briavels at about 9am.
If you would like to take part, either by walking or sponsoring a walker, then please contact James Parsons for a sponsor form (email - jamesdparsons727@gmail.com or phone – 07970 489362). Sponsor forms will be in Tidenham, Tidenham Chase and Tutshill churches, if you’d like to sponsor the group as a whole.
Why not come to Tidenham Church on that Saturday morning and see the preparatory work that has taken place in the North Aisle - the church will be open on the morning for refreshments. We won’t be able to access St Luke’s, but all the other churches are open.

We are an eclectic Church of England parish in the most south westerly corner of the Diocese of Gloucester, on the Welsh border with Chepstow, between the rivers Severn and Wye. There are three church buildings at Tutshill, Tidenham and Tidenham Chase, offering Sunday worship services ranging from traditional Eucharistic worship, Common Worship and the Book of Common Prayer to more informal modern worship. We are also active during the week and we are proud to say our churches support Fairtrade! Please come and join us, if you live in Tutshill, Beachley, Sedbury, Tidenham, Tidenham Chase, Boughspring, Stroat, Woodcroft or Llancaut - we offer fellowship, support and fun!
Please take a look at our News section to find out up to date information - the briefing, sermons and upcoming events.

Our Parish motto ‘where the river flows everything will live’ (Ezekiel 47:9) reflects our vision within the local and global environment. Our Parish vision of ‘Living Life Together in the Flow of God’s Love’ complements the Gloucester Diocesan LIFE vision and we have a strong emphasis on 'doing relationship well' through transforming worship, authentic discipleship, building up capacity, loving community and engaging mission. This is embedded into our lay ministry, pastoral care and engagement within the community.
