Thank you to everyone who joined us for the annual Lights of Love ceremony, held in outside the Manor House with Buntingford Town Council and Isabel Hospice. The choir of Edwinstree Middle School led us in the singing too.As the evening progressed, the High Street was buzzing with many stalls and shops. Thank you to the team at St Peter's Church for the stall selling cakes, bottle tombola and Guess the Name of the Reindeer amongst other things. We had a super night..
On Saturday 13th September, Sue and Trina got on their bikes and Paul and Kirsty donned their walking boots to set off on the Beds & Herts Historic Churches Bike 'n Hike. It was a day of extremely mixed weather but that did not deter us. Sue and Trina, on behalf of St Mary the Virgin, Westmill, rode around the countryside until Sue's bike could go no further. Paul and Kirsty, on behalf of St Mary's, Aspenden and St Peter's, Buntingford walked 12 miles and visited 8 churches. We were very grateful to the churches who provided loo stops, and drinks and cakes. Thank you to everyone who sponsored this event. The funds are shared equally between the named chosen church and Beds & Herts Historic Churches Trust.
Another wonderful morning at St Mary the Virgin for their summer fayre. The Hoola Hoop Challenge and the Steak and Chips Challenge were brilliant fun. It was great to be in the sunshine with friends with a cuppa and delicious cake too.We are delighted to share this event raised £702 which goes directly to support the mission and ministry of our churches. Thank you again.
