Services

Dear fellow parishioner,

On Tuesday, July 19 the Reverend Max Bayliss will become the 75th incumbent of our historic church at a service to be conducted by the Bishop and Archdeacon. Our Patrons and local dignitaries will be in attendance. Our intention is that everyone connected with the church who wishes to attend this service should receive an invitation and have the chance to be present. If you are reading this email and have not yet received your invitation, kindly send a reply straight away with your name and address and we will get one to you in the post. We need to know the numbers to expect so please act promptly if you would like to be there for this important event in the life of our church.

Max and his wife Alice were able to be with us at Pentecost for the Platinum Jubilee service and party. We had 250 attending this joyful event and raised £2000 for charity in the process.

Our Sunday services continue in their usual pattern throughout July led by our devoted College of Chaplains until Max takes up his office.

We look forward to welcoming you in church in the course of the coming month.

Yours faithfully,

Christopher Rees and Edmund Townend Churchwardens
