Dear All
Following our performance at the weekend, which I think we would all agree was a really good one, we received the following from the church wardens at St James:
Just to say many congratulations on an excellent afternoon of performances from all angles; it just worked out perfectly, everyone looking so happy and engaged. You could hear every word and the choice of programme couldn't have been better for a soggy afternoon. We hope you all enjoyed it as much as we did in the audience. These things can be quite a headache to bring to fruition but it was well worth it and so appreciated. … Please give St James’ Church's thanks to everyone for filling our building with such joy. All good wishes and keep up the good work – Philippa
LOST PROPERTY
I have two red choir folders that were left in the church last weekend and which were not claimed yesterday. I’ll bring them with me next week. Also, a pair of glasses were left behind in the church. They are still there, on the low shelf on the right as you enter.
