Thankyou very much : last Sunday was a wonderful day : My thanks to the Bishop and all who joined us for Edwin’s last service with us as Parish curate. Edwin has asked me to express his sincere gratitude for the cards and gifts received as hebegins his new ministry. Then last Sunday nightwe had superb concert. Two hours of music given by Richard , James and Jonathan , the Belmont singers and added into this the humour of Jamie. I cannot thank you enough for the support given and I know no-one left that evening disappointed – what talent !! In the process £1275 was raised for Wales Air Ambulance. A DVD of the concert will be made available as soon as we can for those wishing to watch it again.
