This morning we came together at 10 am for our Eucharist service. Uncharacteristically for a Bank Holiday we had a day of beautiful sunshine with hadly a cloudy in the sky.
We have reached the 10th Sunday of Trinity already, the year is speeding by. The Gospel reading this morning told the story of Our Lord healing a lady on the Sabbath,and the reaction of the religious authorities to this breaking of the law of no work on the Sabbath.Father Srephen in his sermon talked about worship. We can honour God in many ways, our conventional service are one type of worship, but the act of healing, of doing good, of kindness, these are all also forms of worship and honour to God.
Once again the choir was not in session, so hymns were sung but no anthem, although many choir members were in the congregation as individuals.
There was coffee after the service.
Sunday the 8th of September will be our Patronal Festival.Harvest weekend is the 28th and 29th of September this year. The Harvest Supper will be on Saturday the 28th in the Church Hall, and the Harvest Festival service will be on the morning of Sunday 29th September.

The third Sunday of August, and we arrived for Mattins at 10 am in a downpour! However by the time we went across to the Parish rooms for coffee the sky was blue and the sun was out. This morning, we were delighted to have James Roriston playing for us, as Joanna was having a very well deserved break. We sang the Psalm, canticles, and Hymns to his accompaniment, but again there was no anthem as the choir is also on holiday!
Father Stephen spoke about the passage in the Gospel referring to the division that Our Lord tells us his message will bring. This is a difficult idea that division even in families will be a result of the Kingdom, but we must keep our hearts and minds on the message of Our Lord.
After the service we had coffee in the rooms before returning home in sunshine

This morning we met at 10 am on a rather unseasonably stormy Sunday morning for our Parish Eucharist. As it is August the Choir is not in session, so there was no anthem this morning, but we sang some well known hymns with great enjoyment, to Joanna's accompaniment.
The readings today from Hebrews and St Luke told us about faith and Father Stephen continued this theme in his sermon.
