The Celebration Fellowship Supper
We had a great supper with lasagne, baked potatoes, spiced
beans, gammon and salad, followed by sumptuous deserts and all washed down with a glass of wine. It was such a happy and relaxed evening. We watched short animation film produced by the Diocese of Bristol and a Power point presentation celebrating last year’s achievements with lots of cheers as the pictures were displayed! The new look report and accounts for the year ending 31st December 2011 were circulated— if you want your own copy there are spare copies in the church.
A huge thank you to everyone who contributed to the food, setting up and clearing up – and to those who supported the evening.
