The annual gathering of church fellowships in this diocese was hosted by our fellowship this year and so we welcomed 86 ladies to St Mary de Wyche Church for a simple service conducted by the Rector, the Rev Roger Antell, followed by tea and a seemingly endless supply of sandwiches and cakes. A relaxed atmosphere reigned for the subsequent business meeting, which developed into a very jolly catalogue of news from each fellowship concerning their meetings during the past year. It had been a pleasure to meet old friends and to make new ones from all corners of the diocese and we would like to record our thanks to our neighbours from Upton Warren Fellowship, who gave invaluable assistance to our members in the preparation, serving and general tidying-up afterwards.

Our next meeting will be held on Monday, June 19, at 7pm for our Songs of Praise service in St Mary de Wyche Church when we invite members of the United Parish to join us.
