Almighty and ever-living God,

clothed in majesty,

whose beloved Son was this day presented in the Temple,

in substance of our flesh:

grant that we may be presented to you

with pure and clean hearts,

by your Son Jesus Christ our Lord,

who is alive and reigns with you,

in the unity of the Holy Spirit,

one God, now and for ever.

Community Ceilidh

Thank you to everyone who came to the Ceilidh on Saturday and made the event such a success. We raised £730 and more importantly had GREAT FUN!!! Thank you to all who helped behind the scenes – particularly Teresa, Brian, Jack, Declan, Erica, Annie, Harry, Frankie and Kathryn and also to Ravi McHoly and Bill & Hilary McJones who provided additional entertainment! When all the aches and pains have subsided, we might just think about doing it again…!! Jo Rall, Lucy Carvill & Alison Dewhirst.
