The May edition of Connected
is available to download!
This month we welcome Revd. Christine Gillespie to
the ‘Dear Friends’ piece. Christine considers those who may be isolated and
lonely in the area, and how we can reach out to them.
Tony Service reports on the history of the Methodist Chapel
in Brayton and looks forward to their Anniversary celebrations on the weekend
of the 18th and 19th May.
Marriage is very much an issue this month. Revd. Pete Watson
outlines the very helpful marriage preparation workshop that is run at St
Wilfrid’s, and coincidently the Mothers Union report on the catering operation
for the very same workshop. We will gloss over those Churchyard Tidying folk
who gate-crashed the lunch...
St Wilfrid’s hosted a successful Easter Activities event on
Good Friday in which almost 100 folks attended. That equals a ton of hot
crossed buns consumed in the Parish Hall. St Francis’ held a successful Fashion Show (in which men’s
socks featured heavily), and I cheekily propose a job specification for a rural
vicar.
