This Sunday our Eucharist  marked the festival of the Nativity of John the Baptist. The Gospel reading, from Luke, recounted Mary's visit ot Elizabeth John's Mother. In his sermon Father Stephen spoke of the need to persevere with prayer to live a christian life. The choir sang 'How Beautiful upon the Mountain' as the Anthem. The service was followed by coffee in the North Transept.


Next weekend we have two lovely evens happening, on Saturday Father Stephen will celebrate the 25th Anniversary of his Ordination as Priest with a special service at 12:00 noon, to which all are welcome.
