Let's get social
Absolutely brilliant start to Advent with breakfast together and a creative service on the theme of joy. Thanks so much to the White Horse Wonderers home group for all their hard work ❤️ ⭐ 🕯️
We had a brilliant time switching our lights on at the chapel today. Thank you to all who joined us, but thanks especially to all those who helped, with particular thanks to our light hanger-uppers! The churchyard looks amazing!✨
It was such a joy to be at the welcome service for Katey who is the new Rector of St James’ and surrounding villages. It will be a privilege to work with the lovely Katey in the years to come.
