Welcome to the Whittlewood Parishes Our vision in the Whittlewood parishes is to know God better, love others and reach out with the good news of Jesus The Whittlewood parishes are a group (Benefice) of Anglican parishes located in South Northamptonshire. We are in the Deanery of Towcester, the Archdeaconry of Northampton and the Diocese of Peterborough. The parishes are Silverstone, Abthorpe, Slapton, Whittlebury and Paulerspury. The area is very rural and the five villages have populations ranging from under 100 to just over 1500. This is a farming community, both arable and livestock, mixed with some local industry and we also include Silverstone circuit, home of the British Grand Prix, in our area - which brings us bang up to date. Many people who live here travel far and wide to work, enjoying coming home to the peace and tranquillity to be enjoyed in the area. There is quite a large expanse of countryside still forested (a remnant of the ancient hunting forest of Whittlewood). It is our Christian Mission to engage as generously and openly with all those amongst whom we live and all those who come to visit us. We want to share the Good News of Jesus Christ and to encourage each child of God to discover the joy of being a part of His church, our community. Our
services schedule has recently been changed for an experimental period
of one year (from August 2011). We
hope you enjoy your visit to our website.
