New RectorStill no luck. We are about to start a new round of advertising. Let’s hope for better things to come. In the meantime, we continue to organise services as usual. We look forward to welcoming you to any of them. Please see 'services' tab for more details.Bell SundayLast month we had a very happy celebration of bells and bell ringers. Much joyful singing and quite a long coffee break afterwards – lots of chat!The only thing that was missing was some hand bell ringing. ann confesses that was her fault – She dared to go on holiday on the week we should have been rehearsing. We will do better next year. We will almost certainly ring the hand bells for Harvest Festival. Let Ann know if you would like to join in. No musical ability required – Ann – 01376 561505.Village Fayre – Jam and Jigsaws!The church will have a stall this year, selling preserves and jigsaws.
