Benefice of Ropley, Bishop’s Sutton and West Tisted

The Benefice of Bishop’s Sutton, Ropley and West Tisted joins the nation in their profound sadness at the death of Her Late Majesty The Queen.

All three of our parish churches will be open as places of prayer and remembering daily during the next 10 days of national mourning.

Condolence Books will be opened on Sunday following services at St. Nicholas, Bishop’s Sutton and St. Peter’s Ropley. They will remain in place until after Her Majesty’s Funeral.

Tributes may be left in front of the altars.

A prayer on the death of Her Majesty The Queen

Gracious God, we give thanks for the life of your servant Queen Elizabeth, for her faith and her dedication to duty.
Bless our nation as we mourn her death and may her example continue to inspire us;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
