Priest’s Letter May 2024

From the Parish Priest

Dear friends,

For us, June is going to be a very busy month. 

You will see the notices and advertisements for the various events posted around the community and elsewhere in this magazine. I do encourage you to come and join us in all our celebrations and gatherings.

One of the things that I am most excited about this month is the visit from the Choir from Radebeul in Germany.  They are a church choir from a benefice of Lutheran parishes just northwest of Dresden and are coming to spend a week in West Devon to enjoy our lovely countryside, hospitality, and weather!!!  Added to that they will be singing around the area and county.

Do please come and hear them and meet them. There are many opportunities to get to know them and to share fellowship, time and music together,  including an informal shared music evening and Barbecue at the Fox and Grapes.  In a world where there is so much division, we should take every opportunity to make friends and build relationships with our fellow human beings wherever they are from, and whatever their background.

On their final Sunday with us the Revd. Christof Heinze, who is coming with them, will be preaching at Lewtrenchard, and we will be having a bring and share lunch to say farewell to them.

So please join me in welcoming our friends from Germany and making this a week for all of us to look back on with joy and gratitude.

 With love and prayers,

Philip
