Dear Friends

I cannot believe that the year has moved so quickly and we are on the verge of our next flower festival. As usual the machinery has worked well, past experience equipping us well to welcome our visitors.

This week I have heard from Downham Market informing us of the visit of their coach party. Other parties are expected throughout the festival.  It really is a privilege to welcome people from near and far.

My personal thanks to all those involved in the event.  We are extremely fortunate to have a lovely church filled with wonderful people and when the floral displays are added it is really a beauty to behold.

My apologies if I ever look a little preoccupied during the festival.  Ministers tend to be always looking ahead!

The day after the festival, of course, is our wedding, where, in front of family and friends I will commit my life to my beautiful Lana. Once again we look forward to greeting people from near and far.

An enormous thank you, to all who will be involved, both from our churches, and from within the local community. A warm welcome is extended to all who can join us at 4pm on Monday 12^th July.  For our honeymoon Lana and I will be visiting Latvia where we are to receive a wedding blessing in the Riga Methodist Church.  Latvia was Lana’s father’s homeland.

God is good and my prayer is that all those who visit over this amazing weekend, may be aware of God`s peace and blessing.
