On the evening of 14th June St Mary’s welcomed Archdeacon Nicky Fenton who led the Visitation Service for the admission of Churchwardens across the Deanery (and beyond).

Rev Ed broke off from his holiday to support the newly elected Appletree Churches Wardens and also to lead the music for the service from the keyboard.

Thank you to all who came along to support their wardens at the service and thank you to our team of volunteers who hosted a magnificent spread in the school room afterwards and to everyone who donated cakes and nibbles.

The newly installed Churchwardens for the Appletree Churches are:

Boyleston: Pauline Hill

Church Broughton: Rita Shanks

Hatton: Lindsey Ashenden

Hilton: Vickie Melling
