Thanks to all who took part in yesterday's unforgettably uplifting funeral for Shelley Parkinson and reception for the family.

 

Age of wonders:  Attendance at last Sunday's parish service at Holy Trinity was so great that the bulletins ran out.

The latest Financial report (November 2024) is available to view by clicking [here].

The Vestry meeting summary from December 2024 can be viewed by clicking [here].

 

Over the last month production of the Richmond e-News has gone from impossible (remote travels) to awkward (computer problems).  This has put people in a position to judge whether an e-News should continue or whether it has served its purpose.
