CHURCH SERVICE
On Sunday 1st March, the first Sunday of Lent and also Saint David’s Day, a group of worshippers numbering twenty or more gathered at the local church to take part in the “Songs of Praise” service. The officiant on this occasion was Lay Reader Joan Herrington ably assisted by Worship Leader Janet Webb. After a very warm welcome and the giving out of official notices, a reading from the Gospel took place. Matthew 4 1< >11 was narrated by Janet Webb. Intercessions: again by the Worship Leader with musical accompaniment again provided by a trusty CD player as local organist Geof Webb was unable to attend due to illness, but hopefully now appears to be on the mend. Various readings took place between well chosen selections of hymns. These were read by members of the congregation namely, Rosie Woodgate, Fiona Pagdin, Monica Hockenhull, Lynne Tweed. Concluding prayers and a blessing brought the service to a close. Again the congregation were invited to remain for refreshments.
