Well, the Moth Breakfast took place on 2rd June at 7.30am. The weather was cool but dry. Sadly, because of a cold night we didn't get as many moths as we had hoped, but still had about 46 confirmed species and several of many of them. Everyone had the chance to pot moths from the traps and add them onto the tables and write their species on the lining paper covering the tables - so the list grew and grew, adding to some of the more spectacular ones that had been potted and put out initially. Finally, the croissants, pains au chocolat, toast and cookies were eagerly consumed. The 30 people there had a great time and were quite taken aback by the amount of life we normally don't even see in the world around us.
On 5th February about 30 people gathered in the gentle candlelit space of Trusham Church for a Taizé Service. led by the Rev Sandra Gill ( a frequent visitor to Taizé) and Yasmin Mann, we were immersed in the gentle chants of the Taizé music interspersed with short readings and prayers along with silence to allow our hearts to hear God's voice for each of us.A wonderful reflective time, aided by a small music group from Chudleigh, that felt very powerful, healing, and thought provoking.
