11 August 2015
A beautiful summer morning for the tenth Sunday in Trinity, and at 10 o'clock a celebration of the Eucharist. We were blessed with the lovely flowers from the wedding on Saturday, and we had a good congregation for this service. The readings were again from St John's Gospel and Father Stephen preached on St John's account of the people misunderstanding why Jesus had come, not to beat the Romans or to become a King on Earth but to establish the Kingdom of Heaven here on earth as all who believe know well.
There was no anthem as the Choir is in recess and there was no coffee after this service so we could go home straight away to enjoy the sunshine!
Coming up on the social front, there is to be an evening cruise around Chichester Harbour on the evening of the 6th of September, tickets £12 to include canapes and a glass of wine. Places are limited so please see the church wardens for a ticket as soon as possible.
On the 20th of September Alex Palmer, Family and Friends, will give a concert at 3:00pm in the church to be followed by tea, all are welcome. Both of these events will be for the new Parish Rooms.
