A very warm welcome to all who worship with us this morning. Many thanks to Alan for leading our service today. Next Sunday Rev Dan Yeazel will be with us.

Our thoughts and prayers for Jill as, this week, she farewelled Pedro. Pedro meaning – Strength, Stability, Dependability and Loyalty. We can learn much from the unconditional love that our special furry friends give: ‘A friend is one who knows who you are, understands where you have been digging, accepts how dirty you are and still invites you to dinner’. R.I.P. Pedro – a true little gentleman.

And from Jill…thank you to the congregation for your kind acceptance of an anxious little dog.
