Is it really 2020? A fifth of the way through the 21st Century already?
Where does the time go?
This month Fernbank Court features most prominently since they hosted the
Christmas Posada and were entertained by St Wilfrid’s Junior Church.
Revd. Rob Suekarran writes his first Dear Friends – welcome Rob! – and Tony
Service keeps us updated with comings and goings at Brayton and Burn Chapel.
Martin Pearson reveals his blokey side, and beer preferences, whilst Jackie
Jackman reports on the Fox Lane Procession that took place in Thorpe Willoughby
recently.
There are also recollections of Noel Cryer and Carol Copland.
Finally I report on the Christmas Posada and Nine Lessons and Carols at St
Wilfrid’s.

It’s nearly Christmas! A time to over indulge, and for looking forward to the fitness regime to recover from the said over indulgence. It doesn’t seem like 12 months since I started the last exercise programme...
Revd. Christine Gillespie writes the Dear Friends piece this month and looks at relevance of Psalm 23 in teaching children to trust in God. We look at the origins of the Christingle, and Tony Service reports on the forthcoming Methodist services throughout December, the importance of Toilets and the Flourish Weekend at Scarborough in October. I report on Wine & Wisdom and the St Francis Christmas Fayre, and more seriously the Commonwealth War Graves in the St Wilfrid’s churchyard and, with the help of Parish Pump, the trend of building barriers between peoples.
