Lectio Divina update
After years of leading the sessions, Ann has retired from hosting the Lectio meetings and Lucy Stevens will take over from her.
Meetings will be held every last Wednesday of the month at 7.45pm after the Midweek Reflection.
For the first one this Wednesday 30 September the church will be used.
For winter months a new venue will need to be found.
The bellringing practice will continue; the sound of the bells is not that loud in the nave (while it is loud when you are in the Annexe).
