After 8 years of service to St John's, John has stepped down as the church organist and choir director. He was given a card, an enormous present and loud appreciative applause.After the service, drinks and nibbles were served while John cut a 'piano' cake kindly provided by Linda. Many stayed to chat, reminisce and to thank John personally.
Our church organist, John (second from the right), is retiring on 16 February 2025. He has given many years faithful service and will be greatly missed, especially by the choir.Please try and be in church for the service that Sunday and be part of the celebration of John's time at St John's.
Work will be starting Monday 20 January to improve the Church Hall.A new path suitable for wheelchairs, buggies and those who hate the steps, is being put in from Church Walk to the front door.Inside the toilets will be reconfigured. The Gents will become a toilet for the disabled, and the Ladies changed to 2 Unisex toilets one opening into the lobby and the other into the area where the coat hooks currently are.There will always be one toilet available during the works and this will be the one in the Gents to start with. The works will take at least 3 weeks to complete.
