The first Sunday of March, our Family Service  bought us together on St David's day. The Sunday school team gave us a presentation, not about St David, of whom we spoke last year but St Non, the mother of St David. She lived in Pembroke shire and was a nun who having being ravished by a local prince became pregnant with St David. She gave birth during a great storm which prevented anyone from going outside including those who wished to kill her baby. He labour pains were so bad her hands gripping the stones made impressions, these stones are incorporated in the foundations of a chapel built on the site of the birth of David. She ended her days in Cornwall in a convent.
We had several Welsh hymns to mark the Saint's day.The Choir sang 'Ave verum corpus' Setting by W A Mozart.
There was coffee after the service.

Do come to sing or listen to The Crucifixion by John Stainer, on 28th March. Singers are invited to join in the rehearsal between 3 and 5, the performance will be at 6:00 pm.
the following day the 29th of March is Palm Sunday, and also will be the day of the  Annual Parochial  Church Meeting. This is your opportunity to vote in new PCC members and to read and discuss the annual report of all our activities in 2014. All are welcome!!

Happy St David's Day!!
