This building was opened in May 1871 so last year (2021) was 150 years old. Unfortunately, we were unable to celebrate this anniversary because of Covid and the building was closed so this May we shall celebrate our 150th plus one anniversary.
We begin with Coffee Time Jazz on Thursday, 19th May with Matt Hodges. Coffee will be served from 10.30am with the music beginning at 11.30am. There will be a retiring collection to defray expenses.
Why not come and see our lovely church and listen to Matt playing music from The American Song Book on our baby grand. If you are hungry there is The Town Green Garden cafe opposite the church where you can get lunch after the concert.
On Saturday, 21st May from 10.30am - 3.00pm and on Sunday, 22nd May from 2.00-4.00 there will be a celebration of crosses in the church with pictures, models and decorated crosses. There will be a crayoning competition for children - come and find out who has been awarded a prize!
There will be a celebratory service with craft activities on Sunday, 22nd May at 10.30am led by Rev Steve Cullis. The specially commissioned quilt by Jackie Smith will be dedicated and it will be on display in church and then through the Town Green Centre during the following days.
We would love to see you sometime over the weekend.
