Feb 18th

We started this Morning Worship by celebrating an important birthday for one of our churchwardens. We were then encouraged to attend the team Lent Groups which start on Tuesday 27th Feb 6th March to give us a focus as be begin a period of interregnum. Chris (Campbell-Kelly) led the service including a short meditation with a pause and a piece of music for us to develop our own thoughts.
We are made in the image of God and that is expressed in how we live.

Chris (Gleaves) then spoke - the last in our current stewardship series about the importance of financial giving and its need to be at least proportionate to our income (if not tithing).

A leaving lunch

after seven years we said goodbye to Rod with our best wishes for his future ministry and happy memories of and Lynne's time amongst us.
