We had around 60 people at this year’s Mother’s Day Tea.

With a number of our Young People away at their weekend in Swindon, it fell to Victor to ‘host’ the tea.

Further excitement occurred in the kitchen when it was realised that the trusty ‘Burco’ water heater had failed and we had to rely on numerous kettles to provide tea.

Fortunately the expectant crowd were not kept waiting for long and were soon treated to the usual spread of sandwiches, scones, cakes and the traditional finale of jelly and ice cream.

We were delighted to have Nathan Moore along to speak to us over the tea-table.  Nathan gave a short, amusing talk on Jesus being similar to a mother hen gathering her chicks to herself.

We now look forward to our forthcoming Family Service, which takes place next Sunday.
