The main Family Service in the ‘English Parishes’, for Mothering Sunday, is going to be at Ratlinghope this year. We are preparing a family-friendly service with input from as many people as possible – young and older (and old). All of us who have, or had, mothers, and people who cared for us, (at least in our younger years) are going to thank them and give thanks for them.The usual posies will be at the service, and refreshments after the service.Please put this date in your diary. Thanks.
