A huge thank you to Mary Burbage and Martin Falkner for leading us through beautiful and meaningful services on the Sunday’s in August where we had no priest. Tea in the hall was provided afterwards. A chance for a chat and catch up. The people who came were very grateful our doors at St George’s were kept open. It is only by working together as a community and selfless individuals coming forward that we can provide the opportunity for prayer, support and friendship. Thank you both on behalf of the parish.
