Wheels turn ever so slow - but they are turning. Matters are being progressed robustly with the powers that be, even if responses are not as expeditious as one would like. Nevertheless we anticipate success eventually and our fund-raising events continue for the benefit of the Church Building Fund, earmarked for the Extension project once approvals are in place.
The Sponsored Walk on 19 September benefited from marvellous weather and a great turnout. Our Vicar managed to lose his way on the walk (leading his flock astray?) but eventually made it back to the churchyard in time for the barbecue, enjoyed by young and old alike. A total of £1,530 was raised; congratulations to Wendy Murton and her team and thanks to the Scouts for the barbecue. From physical to mental challenges - on 26 October Andy Lewis, despite recent surgery on his knee, organised a highly charged Pub Quiz. The Red Lion was standing room only and £558 was raised. Thanks to Andy and his team, and to Sue Robson for nobly putting up with it all.
We look forward to continued support in the future. Remember that this is a community project to improve St Agatha’s ability to host a wider range of community activities, now and for future generations.
