The Carol Service
It was heartening to see the church full at the carol service last Sunday. We owe a huge debt to the organisers, the readers, ringers and choir, all of whom worked so hard to ensure that the Christmas season started in such a memorable way. In particular we need to thank Margaret Edwards the choir leader and Michael Teague the organist, as well as Nessa Morcom, Janet Lawer and Jenny Thomas who were responsible for the mince pies and the raffle afterwards. Of course the raffle could not have taken place without prizes: thanks to everyone who contributed to these: I understand that the cake had been baked by our former Chief Constable, Shaun Sawyer. The collection and raffle raised a much needed £431 for St Petroc’s Society.
A very happy Christmas to One and All,
Joe
