Our joint service with St John the Divine, Chevington, was led entirely by Mother’s Union members today. We were reminded of the founder Mary Sumner’s vision and of the campaigning as well as the practical work of the Mother’s Union across the world.Thank you to everyone who took part, in whatever way, this morning.Thanks to Liz, Carollyn, Penny, Anne, Nancy, Ann, Josie and Linda.The recessional music was a compilation of Dolly Parton songs. She was a great promoter of families too. Thanks to our organist Bev.
On Saturday 19th July, a group of Franciscans set off from Alnmouth Friary on a Pilgrimage for Peace. After spending the night in Amble at the homes of some of our parishioners, they met for Morning Prayers and a light breakfast at St Cuthbert's Church. They then set off on the next stage of the journey ending in Durham on Thursday 23rd July.
