NOTICES

Parish BBQ Our annual burger/ sausage-fest will be held at the Church on Saturday 10 August. Tickets are available today £7. This is a very appropriate date, as it is the feast day of St Laurence the Deacon, who was martyred by being griddled. Tradition has it that he called out to the executioners to turn him over, as that side was done...

Congratulations to Emma and Philip Gregory on the birth of their son Daniel born on July 4th weighing 7lbs 2oz!
