Italian Supper

As part of the fund raising for the roof repairs, an Italian supper was held in the village hall on Saturday evening of 28th April. A quiz on things Italian added to the fun of the evening.

RAISE THE ROOF concert

The church was full on Saturday evening of April 14 with parishioners enjoying a concert performed by local artists and the church choir. The concert ended with singing in the style of Last Night at the Proms. The concert was the first event in a sequence to raise money for repairs of the church roof including the launch of the 'Sponser a Roof Slate' appeal (see details under Notices).

As part of the celebrations of Easter, the cross at the entrance of the church drive, which had been bare during Holy Week, was decorated for Easter Sunday, and the Experience Easter display in church for The Resurrection was decorated with extra flowers.
