Volunteering - flowers, brasses, gardening

Flowers

Contact Jean Cooke - 07808 723340

There are 16 people who volunteer to do the altar flowers. We are very grateful to them and to Sue Haynes for facilitating the rota. For special festivals a team get together to decorate the church. We are always in need of others to help and they need not be churchgoers, just people who enjoy flowers and the thought of giving the pleasure of flowers to others. Sue Haynes comments:
“St Mary's is a joy to do flowers in and to see the Church transformed into a beautiful place is most rewarding and uplifting.”
