Another glorious Festival – beautiful flower arrangements and musical moments in the Church; lunches and refreshments, souvenirs, plants, books and craft fair (Sunday & Monday) in the St Barnabas Centre; mini-fete (Monday Only) in the Emmaus Centre; coffee shop in the Church Room (Sunday & Monday) and prayer for healing in the Cow Shed Rooms.

It was so good to see all these buildings in use at the same time on the Monday afternoon in stark contrast to the relative peace of the Saturday afternoon.

A wonderful atmosphere existed throughout the weekend and on Monday afternoon the whole place was ‘buzzing’, the car parking stewards worked hard to get everyone in.

Thank you to every person who helped or visited the Festival.

Visit the Friends’ web site www.friends.stjames.btinternet.co.uk/ to see a selection of photos taken throughout the event.

A souvenir DVD showing photos of each arrangement accompanied by organ music sympathetic to the theme of the arrangement (not just hymns and songs heard during our services) is available from Philip and Maureen Hargrave.
