On Friday our beautiful choir had the privilege of singing Evensong at Westminster Abbey. It was truly amazing and the choir sounded beautiful. We were so lucky to be there. If you have never heard our choir sing, then please do join us for our very own Evensong at St Edward's Church 13th Sep 18:30.
Last Saturday, St Edward's held their first St Edward's Fest. What an amazing day with people coming from all over the borough and further afield, to join us, celebrate a great community day in the Church Grounds. Bouncy Castles, animals, ice cream, some fabulous local acts, and lots of games. It was a great day, and the Romford community really came together in the sunshine, to laugh, join together, chat and enjoy life. All in the fabulous surroundings of St Edward's Church.Thank you to everyone who joined us, either by volunteering, making cakes, making sure the church stayed open or just came and spent time with us. We made circa £3700 - a massive amount for the church. Thank you Romford!
Despite the temperatures, we are already thinking about November! If you have ever popped along to our church in November - you can't fail to be impressed by our fabulous poppy display. Every poppy in the church is handmade by a member of our community.This year we are hoping to go bigger and better. Are you a crocheter or a knitter? If so, then would you consider giving up some time to knit or crochet some poppies for our display. If you are, please reach out to the church office, or pop them into the church. We are not worried about size or a set pattern - the main thing is they are all different. Thank you so much for your support in advance!
