Patronal Festival Weekend

We had a great weekend:

On Saturday there was the wedding of a couple of our regular members of the congregation, Jon and Becky,  followed by a mad dash to Rochester Cathedral for Stephen's ordination, then on Sunday our festival Communion service , which was also Stephen's first celebration of Communion (well done, Stephen...!), then the baptism of the grandaughter of our bellringers (welcome to the family, Rose), then a Strawberry Tea in the vicarage garden (many thanks to those who slaved away in the hot sun to provide wonderful refreshments) then an evening service with some favourite hymns, and music from the choir (thank you, choir).

I took a few photos at the Strawberry Tea, though not many of the assembled throng eating (too busy eating myself...)

Those who got here right at the beginning headed straight for the shade...


A game of chess provoked deep thought....


Garden Jenga was nailbiting...


...and great was the fall thereof...
