Peter Richmond conducted the service on Sunday morning as Mrs Bridgewater was unable to do so because of ill health.

Shirley Mildren played the piano and Peter was warmly welcomed by Tracie Haslam the vestry steward who also read the notices at the commencement of the service. Wendy Hallows welcomed the congregation at the door and the flowers were provided by Crete Pooley.

Peter's theme throughout was about prisoners and the churches attitude towards them. He chose hymn number 414 and constantly referred to the words “Do justly, love mercy, walk humbly with your God”. Joanna Alker read a lesson.

A successful coffee morning was held at the home of John and Crete Pooley for chapel funds.
