Everyone seemed to have a good time enjoying games such as the Welly Toss, Hang out the Vicar's laundry and of course the popular Splat the Rat game.As usual, the plant and cake stalls were popular as was the afternoon teas and beer tent.At last count, £4700 had been raised which was a significant increase on last year's total.Once again, thank you to all of our wonderful volunteers who do an amazing job each year.
The Three Peaks are the 3 highest mountains in the UK: Ben Nevis (Scotland), Scafell Pike (England) & Snowdon (Wales). No gentle family stroll, it’s very difficult to achieve, reaching the summits of not one mountain, but three! We’re so proud of them and look forward to hearing how they got on. Sponsor forms are at the back of church or please contact Natasha at kandfcurate@gmail.comAll proceeds will be donated to St Mary’s
I have been so blessed to be part of this wonderful community which has encouraged and supported me throughout my curacy – thank you all so much. However, I am also really excited to embark upon the next stage of this journey as Associate Vicar of Parish of All Saints’, Fulham.What I really loved about this post was the idea of being part of a team. I have so enjoyed working together with Simon here and I really thrive working collaboratively. All Saints, Fulham has a fantastic music tradition (and many of you know how important music is to me!). It also has a real community feel, just like here, which is unusual for a London church. It is involved in outreach work with a lunch for the homeless every Thursday and has great connections with the local schools, especially the Primary School, also offering lots of opportunities for young people.In other words, it is a real mix of things where I feel I can really get involved and together with Fr Peter and the new curate, Simon, can hopefully do some exciting things! - Natasha
