On Sunday we celebrated our Feast of Dedication. It was a significant birthday, celebrating 150 years of the dedication of the present church building to St Michael and All Angels.
Fr Bosco Peters presided and preached at the 10am Mass, where Our Gospel reading was taken from John 2:13–22.
We were also glad to see the return of Evensong and Benediction. The sermon at Evensong, preached by Fr Peter Williams, can also be found in this post.
