The service paints many vivid pictures of what happens on the Christian way.
If you are engaged to be married and looking for a church to be married in, then congratulations! A wedding is one of life's great moments, a time of solemn commitment as well as good wishes, feasting and joy.
If someone you know and love has died, a funeral led by a Church of England minister can be held in church, in a churchyard, by a graveside, or at a crematorium. The minister will be there to support you every step of the way.
Dear Friend
What a joy it was to see St Edith’s full of people of all ages from across the five churches for my last service as Rector of the Garrowby Benefice. Mike and I would like to say heartfelt thanks for the lovely afternoon tea and also the gifts that you gave. It has been a real joy for Mike and I to have served you and to have lived in this beautiful area. It is with mixed feelings that I hang up my cassock but we are delighted that we are able to stay in the Benefice and to continue our friendships with you all. Thank you to all who have been there for Mike and I during good times and difficult times. WE would be delighted to see any of you if you would like to call for a coffee in Bugthorpe. Our phone number is 01759 773771.
Love and prayers Linda x
