VE DAY 80 COMMEMORATIONS
This month sees the nation coming together to remember Victory in Europe Day 1945. We have members of our congregation who have fond memories of that day – “dancing in my clogs outside of the Co-Op in Parton” was one memory!
We have plans to remember it with displays in church using the 80 knitted servicemen that have been lovingly knitted as a centre piece. Many of these have been dedicated to family members who have served in the forces. Local school children have been involved in the making of displays and writing poetry and prayers. Also our own bell ringers will be joining in with the nationwide “Ring out for Peace” initiative on Thursday 8th May at 6pm.
There are plenty of opportunities for you to get involved and if you are not able to join in then please pray for the events that we have coming up.
THURSDAY 1ST MAY 9am – we meet to prepare the church. As per usual we need people to help with displays, hoover up, make drinks and join in with the chat.
WEDNESDAY 7TH & THURSDAY 8TH local school children will be visiting and having a go at ringing for peace too.
THURSDAY 8TH MAY 5.30pm onwards – come along to hear the bells at 6pm and later at 8.15pm when local ringers will come together to RING OUT FOR PEACE. In between times we are encouraging you to come along with friends and family to hear the bells and have a go at pulling a bell yourself for. Prayer cards will be available and of course refreshments too.
FRIDAY DROP-IN 9TH MAY 10am – 12pm – come along and see the displays and enjoy some more home baking with a cuppa.
