This was followed by a delicious lunch with entertainment by Josh Hindle and Matt Whitely. Mothers’ Union is open to all, whether male, female, mother or not. It is a charity that supports family life. Please speak to Reverend Lesley (or Pam Barton or Jenny Yerkess at St Anne’s) if you would like further information or to join.

Our next meeting is Wednesday 6th September, as we take a break for summer.But those who drink the water I give will never be thirsty again. It becomes a fresh, bubbling spring within them, giving them eternal life.’ John 4: 14
Her spirits were lifted as she saw the transformation of the church hall into the Refectory and Walled Garden. We then had a quiet time in church and said prayers. Joyce made and cared for the altar linen used at St Anne’s, including all the beautiful lace. Thank you to Darren (son-in-law) who made this possible.
Here is a photo of the clergy including many Bishops and faith leaders from other faiths. Reverend Lesley is there, but it’s a bit like those ‘Where’s Wally’? books – she is hard to spot!!
