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.
