WELL, August 17, 2015 seems was a very long time ago and now we have been promised that we have almost finished the inside ceilings. So we will have a new roof and ceilings to face 2016 with and all the wind and rain it has so far brought with it. It is a big relief not to worry about leaks and damage inside after a stormy night. There is still a little internal decorating to put right and, of course, our grounds have taken something of a battering but the Spring will soon sort the new grass out. We also have a lovely new hand rail to help us get up the steps, it really is a lovely design and so in keeping with the Church architecture, thank you to Boyd Walton who designed it himself and installed it.

It seems a long time since our last Book Fair so I am delighted to say we will be reopening for Saturday Book Fairs from this Saturday 13 February 10am- 12noon and then each Saturday morning. We have a truly fantastic array of new stock ready for you to come and browse and stock up on. We also have CD’s and DVD’s and cards for sale and our Gift Stall, which we are expanding over the next few weeks. Do come and see us again, we have missed you. There will be refreshments for you to enjoy over a chat with friends, encourage your friends and neighbours to come please do. It will be lovely to have a 'scaffoldless' Church for our 11am service this Sunday.
