A massive thank you to all who came to help clear the churchyard on Monday. We enjoyed

view the fruits of our labours we've been clearing the top corner of the churchyard near the

Wanted Church Sitters
One of the things which people appreciated during the Mission was that we managed to keep
the church open most of the day during the week. Although the church is now open on a
regular basis, thanks to all those who already sit.  We would very much like to try and open
for longer each day. We are hoping to fill some of the spaces on the existing rota.
