Morning Prayer on Sunday, taken by the Rev Heather Aston, included the baptism of Zachary Thomas Williams.

Proud parents Nicola and Matthew, who got married in Mawgan Church, together with godparents Barry Williams, Rebecca Bosustow (also married in Mawgan Church), Edward Savage and Becky Roberts together with over 60 family, friends and the usual congregation welcomed Zachary into the church.

In her sermon the Rev Aston emphasised the powerful promises that had been made on Zachary’s behalf by his parents and godparents on this wonderful occasion. She closed with appropriate words for a farming community, linked to the reading about the parable of the weeds and from a harvest hymn. “Grant, O harvest Lord, that we wholesome grain and pure may be.”

The service on Sunday will be a eucharist at 9.30am celebrated by the Rev Heather Aston.
