The weather held up well to allow our church picnic to go ahead outdoors after our morning service on 29th August. Tables and chairs were brought outside to the newly surfaced area at the back door of the church hall and some folk brought their own picnic chairs. Around 25 folk enjoyed their picnic food outdoors and chatting to each other. Sadly a few who would have been there were isolating because of positive Covid-19 test results, but it was good to have some extended family members visiting for worship and staying for the picnic.
After the eating was all done we gathered a little closer for a short time of psalm singing. We have been singing just one psalm at the end of our worship services, so it was good to be able to take time to sing to God’s praise with some psalms chosen by our precentor Jennifer Kennedy and others requested by those who had gathered.
